What I'm looking for

I seek a leadership role in a collaborative, trauma-informed organization where I can supervise clinical teams, manage programs, and improve outcomes for vulnerable populations.

I am a seasoned mental health professional with over seven years of experience providing clinical supervision, crisis intervention, and program management across diverse populations including MICA, LGBTQ+, HIV/AIDS, at-risk youth, and chronically homeless individuals.

I have led teams, overseen clinical services, and managed high-demand programs while ensuring state regulatory compliance and improving client outcomes through person-centered, trauma-informed approaches.

My hands-on experience includes medication administration, psychoeducational group facilitation, case management, and coordination with cross-sector partners such as NYPD, EMS, DHS, and healthcare providers to safeguard vulnerable populations.

I bring strong skills in staff training and development, EHR systems (EPIC, Credible, Therap), and crisis de-escalation, and I am committed to delivering compassionate, outcomes-focused care that helps clients transition to stable housing and independent living.
