Live For Thomas: Changing The Face Of Suicide With Amy Ocasio
Episode description
Meet Amy, a passionate advocate for suicide awareness and prevention, and the inspiring Co-Founder and President of the LIVEFORTHOMAS Foundation. This esteemed non-profit is a beacon of hope, dedicated to fighting the harsh realities of suicide, created in the touching memory of Amy's beloved son, Thomas, who tragically passed away at just 16 years old in 2019.
Not only is Amy a monumental figure in suicide prevention, but she also serves as a compassionate mental health therapist at Pivot Point Counseling. Her unwavering commitment to this cause led her to further her expertise and recently earn a doctorate in prevention science, ensuring she is at the forefront of helping others.
Away from her commendable work, Amy cherishes quality time with her family. She loves making lasting memories with her delightful daughter, Michaela, and her charming grandson, Ezra. We invite you to connect with Amy, join her mission, and be part of this heartfelt effort to shed light on suicide awareness and prevention.
