Cindy Black, LMSW
Bethel — This August, staff of the Bethel Family Health Center were happy to welcome Cindy Black, LMSW, to their professional healthcare team.
Black earned her Master of Social Work degree from Walden University. Previously, she earned her Bachelor of Arts degree in Psychology & Communications from Merrimack College. Black’s wealth of experience in providing mental health services includes a variety of care types and settings, including case and care management, individual therapy for substance use disorder, and mobile health crisis support. Her wide range of experience will make her a great addition to the Bethel team.
When asked about her approach to care, Black said, “I am thrilled to be joining the HealthReach team in serving this community. I feel that each patient deserves to be met with dignity and respect. My goal is to always meet my patients where they are at, offering a person-centered approach to meet individual needs and goals”.
Black joins the existing Bethel clinical team — Doctor, Kevin Finley; Nurse Practitioners, Brittany Bennett and Carly Hanson; Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, Amanda Adamen; and Licensed Clinical Social Workers, Leslie Lufkin and Denise Thorn.
Bethel Family Health Center continues to recruit for an additional mental health clinician — those interested can visit www.HealthReach.org/Employment for more information. The Bethel Team looks forward to being able to schedule appointments as soon as possible for HealthReach patients who are awaiting mental health services.
