Greetings! I’m Amanda Bsumek, a dedicated individual immersed in the realms of psychology and substance use disorder treatment. Currently pursuing my psychology degree and working towards certification as a Substance Use Disorder Associate, I am on a transformative journey from a CEO role at River of Hope to a clinical background focused on directly impacting and treating clients.
My passion for helping others extends to the kitchen, where my better half, Danny, and I whip up delicious meals from scratch. Cooking is not just a hobby; it’s a shared experience that adds flavor to our lives.
Beyond the kitchen, I find solace in the world of literature and the artistry of tattoos. Reading provides me with a constant source of knowledge and inspiration, while tattoos are a unique form of self-expression that I embrace with enthusiasm.
My heart lies in working with juveniles, aiming to make a positive difference in their lives. I envision a future where I hold a doctorate and am a licensed clinical psychologist, dedicated to helping individuals dealing with substance use disorders and mental health challenges. Every step I take is not just for personal growth but to be a beacon of hope and guidance for my four wonderful children.
Family is my cornerstone, and we share a love for exploration, being certified scuba divers who relish in the wonders beneath the surface. As we dream together, my aspiration is to own a vast ranch in the countryside, creating a haven for our family.
Leadership is a quality I embrace wholeheartedly, whether it’s in my academic pursuits, professional endeavors, or the nurturing of my family. The gym is my sanctuary, a place where I find not only physical strength but also the grounding force that keeps me centered amidst life’s challenges.
In my quest to be a better person each day, I am fueled by a desire to learn and absorb as much knowledge as possible. This, combined with a commitment to ongoing personal development, propels me forward on the exciting path toward my goals. Let’s connect and share in the journey of growth, resilience, and the pursuit of meaningful impact.
