What I'm looking for

I am seeking clinical social work roles in hospital or community settings where I can provide direct patient/family support, coordinate care, and grow in trauma-informed and pediatric services.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with experience across hospital, neonatal, pediatric, and community settings, delivering psychosocial assessments, discharge planning, and grief support. I have worked in NICU, Labor & Delivery, Maternity, dialysis, and pediatric units, and provided in-home early intervention services for infants and toddlers.

My background includes facilitating connections to community resources, navigating insurance and billing assistance, conducting autism assessments, and coordinating complex discharges and home care referrals. I have provided mentorship and direct therapeutic supports to patients, families, and individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities.

I am client-centered, outcomes-focused, and skilled with electronic health systems such as Credible, Epic, and Allscripts. I hold an MSW with a casework concentration and a CT Licensed Clinical Social Worker credential.
