Heather Gray
Staff Bio
Leadership
Chief Executive Officer
Heather’s career in behavioral health is fueled by a deep passion for helping individuals find hope and healing. Her journey into this field was shaped by witnessing the profound impact that trauma, substance abuse, and mental health challenges can have on individuals and families—and by the transformation that’s possible when the right support is in place. She loves walking alongside teens and their families through some of the most difficult moments of their lives, earning their trust, and celebrating the small steps that grow into lasting change.
Heather brings both professional expertise and lived experience to her role. Having grown up navigating childhood trauma and addiction, she knows firsthand the weight of those struggles as well as the freedom that comes from healing. Combined with more than a decade of experience in behavioral health leadership, her unique blend of personal and professional insight allows her to connect with families authentically and guide them with both empathy and evidence-based care.
Heather’s hope is that every teen and family she serves feels seen, heard, and supported. She strives to create a safe, non-judgmental space where people can begin to heal, build resilience, and discover their own capacity for change. More than anything, she wants them to leave with a renewed sense of hope, knowing they are not alone and that recovery is possible.
Outside of work, Heather cherishes time with her husband, her son, and their three dogs, whose joyful chaos keeps life lively. She enjoys being outdoors, cheering on football and F1, and savoring the simple everyday moments of laughter, connection, and family.
