What I'm looking for

I seek clinical roles providing direct client care (telehealth or school/EAP settings), opportunities for care coordination, crisis work, and professional collaboration.

I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with extensive experience providing telehealth, EAP, school-based, individual, couples, and family therapy. I hold multiple state MFT licenses and have a strong background in assessment, treatment planning, crisis intervention, and timely clinical documentation.

My clinical work spans Employee Assistance Programs, teletherapy platforms, military family services, and school mental health settings where I coordinated care, developed safety plans, and delivered research-based interventions to meet clients' short-term and ongoing goals.

Prior to full-time clinical practice I taught middle school English Language Arts for many years, designing standards-aligned curriculum, differentiating instruction, and monitoring student progress—skills that enhance my therapeutic work with children, adolescents, and families.
