I excel in facilitating group sessions and have a proven track record of helping students from diverse backgrounds navigate their concerns.

Throughout my career, I have developed and implemented tailored treatment plans that foster positive change and growth. My experience includes working in educational settings, where I have honed my skills in administrative responsibilities and record-keeping, ensuring accurate documentation of student interactions. I strive to create a welcoming environment that encourages open communication and support.
