What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can apply clinical and coaching skills to support individual and group wellbeing, deliver evidence-based interventions, train stakeholders, and provide remote counseling with measurable impact.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist and adaptable life coach with extensive experience delivering individual and group therapy, evidence-based CBT interventions, and remote coaching to support anxiety management, motivation, and behavioral change. I design structured personal development programs and train teachers and parents to build emotional intelligence and student resilience.

My background includes implementing school-based projects to enhance self-esteem and communication, guiding families through crises with compassionate crisis intervention, and maintaining rigorous documentation and progress evaluation to optimize outcomes. I combine clinical expertise with practical coaching strategies to foster sustained wellbeing and measurable personal growth.
