I work hand in hand with mental health counselors to help clients achieve their mental health goals. As a skills builder I go into client's homes to help them learn coping skills and work on implementing skills to combat anxiety, depression, breaking familial patterns, anger management, etc. I also get clients out into the community to volunteer, work on socialization skills, overcome fears, etc. As a case manager I link clients to resources in the community such as housing, food, clothing, volunteer and social opportunities, mental health and physical health resources, etc.
