Kenisa Spiva

I am a crisis intervention specialist with hands-on experience answering 988 lifeline calls and providing immediate emotional support to people in distress.

I have worked as a victim advocate on a hotline, assisting survivors with emotional support, resources, referrals, and crisis stabilization.

As a Certified Peer Support Specialist, I draw on lived experience to facilitate recovery support groups and provide one-on-one peer sessions; I hold a Certified Peer Counselor credential and a WA State Victim Advocacy certificate.

I am studying psychology at Southern New Hampshire University and bring strengths in crisis management, intake, meeting facilitation, and trauma-informed care to collaborative teams committed to client-centered outcomes.
