United StatesWhat I'm looking for
I am an extremely dedicated professional with over 15 years of experience in social services. My journey has been marked by a commitment to advocacy and support for vulnerable populations, particularly victims of sexual assault. Currently, I serve as a liaison for community outreach programs, where I utilize my decision-making skills and behavioral health assessments to provide essential follow-up care for those in crisis.
Throughout my career, I have facilitated group therapy sessions and individual counseling, employing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques to help clients navigate their challenges. My experience as a Counselor at Richmond County Correctional Institution allowed me to manage a caseload of over 150 inmates, where I coordinated community outreach programs and prepared crucial documentation for court hearings. I take pride in my ability to work collaboratively with various stakeholders, ensuring that individuals receive the support and resources they need.
As I continue my professional development, I am currently pursuing my Licensed Professional Counselor certification. I am eager to leverage my extensive experience and skills to make a meaningful impact in the lives of those I serve, while also contributing positively to my team and organization.
