Summary

With a proven track record at Hopeful Beginnings, I excel at utilizing strength-based, multicultural, client-centered, and DBT skill teaching to foster significant client progress. My collaborative problem-solving and adeptness in anxiety management have enhanced therapeutic outcomes. Committed to professional growth, I've led DBT sessions and ensured holistic care, demonstrating both hard and soft skills in mental health therapy. Long-term, I intend to offer bilingual services in both ASL and English to address the needs of the Deaf and hard-of-hearing populations.
