Summary

My solid work ethic and experience make me an ideal candidate for a position in the mental health and counseling field of social service. I am an innovative leader always striving for excellence in the assistance of clients and their families, addressing maladaptive patterns of behavior, which have hindered their ability to excel academically, socially, physically, and emotionally. My excellent interpersonal and communication skills allow me convey counseling in a safe manner using both verbal and non-verbal communication, along with the ability to empathize and truly listen to a client without judgment. Resourceful Coordinator possessing outstanding prioritization, multitasking and planning abilities to juggle responsibilities. Systematic and methodical professional offering 25 years of hands-on experience handling various administrative duties and tasks in office setting.
