What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that allows me to further develop my skills, contribute to patient care, and work within a supportive team environment.

I am a committed and customer-centric psychologist with a strong understanding of various psychological techniques. My goal is to improve patient care and guide clients in addressing behavioral, mental, and emotional challenges. I pride myself on my clear communication skills, astute perception, and ability to work effectively within a team.

In my current role as a Program Manager at Divine Mercy Wellness Centre, I have successfully implemented rehabilitation policies that enhanced patient outcomes and led a high-performing team. My efforts in spearheading research projects resulted in a 30% increase in positive patient recovery outcomes. I am dedicated to fostering a supportive environment that encourages professional growth and collaboration.

Previously, as a Clinical Counsellor, I designed innovative psychotherapy sessions that raised awareness of critical issues such as gender-based violence. My experience spans various roles, including Addiction Counselor and HIV/AIDS Counselor Intern, where I provided crucial support and developed personalized intervention strategies for clients. I am passionate about making a positive impact in the lives of those I serve.
