Background

About Krysta Fehlmann

As a dedicated and empathetic social work professional, I recently graduated cum laude with a Bachelor of Social Work from Colorado State University in August 2024. My passion lies in empowering recovery and inspiring hope within Northern Colorado's community. I am actively seeking opportunities to expand my skills and impact as a social worker, with a future goal of obtaining my Master's in Social Work with the support of a forward-thinking organization. I bring extensive experience working with diverse populations and addressing complex issues, including medical and mental health, legal matters, substance abuse, and homelessness. My strengths include exceptional communication, critical thinking, and conflict resolution skills, which I utilize to provide comprehensive support to clients and drive positive outcomes. In my current role as a Peer Support Specialist and House Manager at North Range Behavioral Health in Greeley, I manage a sober living home for mothers and their children, overseeing all aspects of case management, intake and discharge processes, and relapse prevention strategies. I am dedicated to assisting clients in accessing and utilizing internal and external services essential for their recovery. Additionally, as the Owner/Operator of Hearts and Hands Recovery, LLC, I have developed strong leadership and organizational skills, coordinating referrals and fostering a robust support network within the community for individuals in recovery from addiction. My experience also includes serving as a Recovery Coach Professional in Denver, where I provided compassionate support and guided clients in self-advocacy and personal goal development. I have supervised Peer Support Specialists, ensuring effective, client-centered care and support delivery. My background in business management, demonstrated through roles such as Front Desk Staff at the Academic Support Center of Front Range Community College and Owner/Operator of Clean Sweep Homecare Services in Loveland, CO, enhances my ability to integrate business acumen with social work practice. I hold an Associate of Arts in Business Management from Front Range Community College and am pursuing certification as a Certified Addiction Specialist (CAS) from Colorado Counselor Training. My commitment to continuous professional development is further evidenced by my completion of various recovery coaching courses and certifications. As a member of the International Association of Recovery Coach Professionals, I am driven to make a meaningful difference in the lives of those I serve.
