Dominican RepublicWhat I'm looking for
I am a clinical psychologist specializing in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), trauma-informed care, and couples therapy, with hands-on experience in psychological assessment, crisis intervention, and evidence-based treatment planning. I combine clinical expertise with strong documentation and telehealth skills to deliver ethical, results-focused care.
My background includes roles in intake assessment, virtual therapy, family and couples counseling, and clinical support within hospital and community settings. I have also led HR functions—recruitment, employee relations, and wellness initiatives—bringing organizational insight to multidisciplinary care teams.
I am committed to client-centered, evidence-based practice, confidentiality, and collaborative problem-solving, and I seek opportunities where I can integrate clinical services, teletherapy, and program development to improve client outcomes.
