“I’ve had the honor of partnering with the Phillips Foundation to oversee the Healthy Relationships Initiative since the beginning. As a mental health professional for over two decades, I’ve seen how important healthy relationships are for helping individuals and communities thrive. Our goal for the Healthy Relationships Initiative is to offer information and tools that help people build healthy relationships in all areas of their lives. This includes their romantic relationships, parenting, family relationships, friendships, and even relationships at work.”
