What I'm looking for

I'm seeking a mental health or social work role where I can provide evidence-based therapy, crisis intervention, case management, and collaborative care for individuals and families.

I'm currently providing supervised telehealth psychotherapy at Thriveworks and Charlie Health, working with individuals and families through depression, anxiety, and other mental health diagnoses. I use evidence-based interventions including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, while administering assessments and tracking IOP client progress.

Previously, I delivered outpatient, youth, family, and substance-use therapy at 55 Silver, Hillsides, and Shields for Families. I've coordinated care across multidisciplinary teams, completed utilization reviews and clinical documentation, supported crisis interventions, and developed treatment plans for clients navigating mental health, probation, and family challenges.
