What I'm looking for

I seek client-centered clinical roles delivering crisis stabilization, trauma and forensic treatment, telehealth services, and opportunities to train staff and contribute to program quality and utilization review.

I am a licensed clinical mental health therapist (MS, LMHC) with deep expertise in crisis intervention, trauma-informed care, forensic assessment, and DBT across lifespan populations. I have provided telehealth and in-person therapy for children, adolescents, adults, first responders, military-connected clients, and forensic populations, delivering individual and group treatment, risk assessments, and specialized interventions.

My background includes per-diem and contracted clinical roles where I led crisis stabilization, case management, and evidence-based treatment (CBT, DBT, TF-CBT), conducted biopsychosocial and psychosexual assessments, managed utilization review and audits, and supported program development and staff training. I hold a Master of Science in Mental Health Counseling and am licensed in multiple states, with sustained work in forensic, juvenile, and community behavioral health settings.
