CAMPBELL COUNTY, TN. (WLAF)- As Ridgeview is a part of the community, we would like everyone to meet some of our staff.

Today, we’d like to introduce you to our Outpatient Facility Director of our LaFollette Clinic, Sharon Kapp!

Sharon Kapp

Sharon has been at Ridgeview for 21 plus years, since December 2000 when she graduated. She started out as a therapist, before moving into the Facility Director position. She had worked as a social worker in LaFollette for about 20 years when she decided to go back to school and become a therapist. Sharon sums up nicely her motivation, “I love working with people in all age groups and have always wanted to help people, seems working on mental health issues just fell in line with my goals in my life/career.”

Some fun things to know about Sharon:
