Description
Mallory Montgomery (Alma) is passionate about healing and social change, which prompted her to pursue the field of art therapy. However, Mallory's contributions extend far beyond a clinical setting.
As a board-certified art therapist and certified clinical trauma professional, Mallory brings a unique blend of clinical expertise and compassionate support to her work. She currently serves as the director of counseling and advocacy for a survivorship program for individuals impacted by domestic violence, sexual assault and human trafficking. In her role, Mallory empowers survivors to reclaim their lives and find healing through creative expression.
Mallory is also a trailblazer in the field of mental health advocacy. She is actively engaged in efforts to license art therapists in Michigan, working tirelessly within the state legislature to expand access to vital mental health services for under-resourced communities.
Beyond her advocacy, Mallory is a devoted artist who finds solace and inspiration through creative expression. Whether it's figure drawing, watercolor, acrylics, oils or ceramics, Mallory's artistic talents enrich both her personal life and therapeutic practice.

Breaking Barriers: Kathryn Childers, The Original Trailblazer: It’s finally here! The first episode of our True and Constant Podcast with hosts, Lex Stewart (Ohio) and Emma Oremus (St. Louis). Joining them in this empowering episode is Kathryn Childers (Colorado-Boulder), who made history as one of the first five female U.S. Secret Service special agents hired in 1971. She joined 1,100 men in the elite agency where she shot holes in the glass ceiling, investigating counterfeit, working undercover and protecting the president and world leaders. Fondly called the “Pistol Packin’ Nanny,” Kathryn was charged with protecting the Kennedy children – Caroline and John Jr. – while traveling the globe with Former First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis. Emma and Lex dive deeper into Kathryn’s history and her current life as a public speaker and author. Plus, they find out what it really means to live up to her mantra— “Do it scared!”— in the newest episode of our True and Constant Podcast. by Gamma Phi Beta Presents: True and Constant Podcast
