  Deb has been in the healthcare industry since 2003. In her career, Deb has served as a Regional Director where she supervised, trained personnel and delivered presentations. Serenity Treatment Center started as a dream and a desire to help those suffering from addiction. Deb was instrumental in developing the policies and procedures, as well as the gratification of seeing the Center come to fruition in 2010. Deb has been actively involved in women’s programs and is passionate about making a difference in the lives of people in the community.

Deb is certified as a Life Coach and facilitates the drumming circle at Serenity, which is always a great hit with the clients.

In her spare time, Deb enjoys spending time with family and friends. On a lazy Sunday you will find her snuggled up with her dogs, Bella and Liam and reading a good book.

Christine has led a gratifying career as a Registered Nurse since 1995.

Christine still holds a strong desire to help people and promote wellness.

Christine has implemented the Vivitrol program at all three of the locations which has shown to be successful in treating alcohol and opiate use disorder. Christine has educated staff, clients, their families, and the community about the benefits of Vivitrol and encourages each person to decide if it is the right choice for them. All newly hired RN's are trained by Christine to ensure that best care is offered to our clients.

After graduating college in 2009, Amanda worked in the "call center" industry for over 5 years. Amanda taught over 2,000 new hires the basics of troubleshooting, customer service, and contract negotiations. Amanda left the call center industry to explore career options, however, realized the customer service skills that were taught over the years would become a great asset. Amanda started with Serenity four years ago as the Hagerstown office was just opening. Amanda has been instrumental in developing and updating policies pertaining to operations. Amanda strives to make sure that all clients needs have been met. Amanda strives to be knowledgeable about all resources to ensure that she is continually up to date on best practices. Amanda serves on local committees to help inform the public about the ongoing drug epidemic, to lead others to sobriety. Amanda attends local events and gives back to the community.
