What I'm looking for

I seek a supportive, team-oriented behavioral health role where I can provide crisis and recovery support, document care precisely, coordinate resources, and grow professionally within trauma-informed, client-centered services.

I am a compassionate peer-support professional with hands-on experience assisting individuals facing substance use and mental health challenges. I provide empathetic, nonjudgmental support while prioritizing client safety and recovery.

I have delivered crisis support on an overdose hotline, monitoring callers and coordinating emergency response when needed, and I facilitated peer support groups focused on coping strategies and building healthy support systems.

In clinical settings I document interactions and progress using the Avatarelectronic health record system, collaborate with care teams, and connect clients with treatment programs and community resources to advance recovery goals.

I bring strong communication, active listening, and client advocacy skills, and I am completing a Bachelor of Science in Psychology (expected July 2026) to deepen my clinical knowledge and better serve clients.
