Welcome Faith Bartholomew and Cash!
We at SGU Tiwahe Glu Kini Pi “Bringing the Family Back to Life” are delighted to introduce our newest member, Faith Bartholomew, a seasoned family therapist who has been hired on as our new Child and Family Therapist.
Faith is originally from Arizona but eventually moved to the North Carolina mountains where she lived and worked with the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians for 15 years. She has also been coming to the RST reservation for about 20 years, earning deep respect for her commitment to our culture, communities and people. Her expertise and understanding will be invaluable to our children's mental health Lakota-based therapy program.
Faith also brings along her sunka, Cash, who will assist Faith at the SGU TGKP Horse Ranch with some therapy sessions. We are confident that Faith's presence will enhance our efforts to support and nurture the youth and their families that we work with.
