By Susan Resko, Josselyn CEO and President
His contributions to the field and to Josselyn have been extraordinary, with Josselyn’s clients as the primary beneficiaries of his dedication and expertise.
At Josselyn, Mike has made a remarkable impact. He grew the clinical team from a dozen to over 200 staff members and expanded the client base from 1,100 to nearly 8,000. He launched innovative programs such as Immediate Access, a youth and adolescent IOP, three additional sites in Lake County, and grew the summer therapeutic intensive program from 8 to 120 children.
Mike is deeply invested in workforce development, growing the clinical internship program from six to over 40 interns. He is now expanding the first-year intern program to provide students meaningful experiences during their initial months of graduate school.
Beloved by his team, Mike’s leadership is reflected in an 87% voluntary retention rate. Every year, teammates join him in biking and push-up contests to celebrate his birthday.
Most of all, I am deeply grateful to Mike. His commitment, knowledge, and strategic thinking make him a valued partner in Josselyn’s mission to provide mental health care for all. I don’t think a week goes by without Mike popping into my office saying, “Susan, I have an idea.” Always thinking, always caring about our clients—that’s Mike Scholl.
