Greenfield Center
Summary
I am a passionate licensed clinical social worker with eight years of experience working with mandated clients in both outpatient and correctional settings. I have experience managing and treating low to high risk clients and using Risk-Need-Responsively Model to keep our communities safe, as well as, to serve our clients diligently.
I am looking to continue to use my knowledge and experience to assist clients in learning to live healthy, pro-social lives, gaining new clinical experiences, but also looking for more opprtunity in growing my supervisory skills. I find it important to find ways to provide support and training to fellow colleagues and enjoy finding new ways for programs to strive.
