Kristin Wallen
Kristin supports and assists individuals in recovery from substance abuse, mental health issues, or other behavioral health challenges. Since Kristin is on her own recovery journey, her work is very personal, and she loves what she does. Her ability to identify with clients as a peer who has “been there and done that” generates healthy professional relationships.
At Luna, Kristin is known for her consistent professionalism, positivity, reliability, and commitment to excellence. Kristin also keeps lines of communication open by being respectful, easy to talk to, and an active listener. Her greatest reward at work is seeing clients who are trying to better themselves get their spark back.
Her training as a Mental Health Peer Specialist makes Kristin prepared me for different scenarios that could potentially occur. She is working on her hours to become MSPS certified. Team members value Kristin’s self-awareness and openness to feedback.
The proud mother of three girls, Kristin has a passion for health and wellness and loves to read. She plans to go back to school this year to work toward a degree in social work.
