It is with Great pleasure and some measure of pride that I announce the promotion of Alexander G Katopis to the Position of Clinical Manager for Merrymeeting Behavioral Health Associates.
Mr. Katopis has actually been with Merrymeeting for about four years. He initially came to us after receiving his BS in science. He began his MBHA career as a team leader for our Adult program and performed exceptionally well before being admitted into the Masters Program at the University of Southern Maine.
While he relinquished his position as team leader in order to attend his Masters program he stayed on with us so that he could fulfill his graduate Intern obligations. And it has been my great pleasure as a seasoned LCSW to have had the opportunity to guide this young man during the development of his professional goals.
As of December 2010 he has fulfilled all the requirements in order to earn both his Masters Degree and most recently his License to practice as an LCPC-C in the state of Maine.
Please join me in welcoming Alex as our Clinical Manager. I have every faith that he will excel in this position and that it is our clients who will benefit tremendously from his developing expertise.
Congratulations Alex! You are an achiever!
