Summary

I'm a highly collaborative leader with over a decade of experience developing high performing clinical teams with a proven track record of innovation, and a natural ability to create strategic partnerships within a rapid growth mental health service industry. I bring extensive experience as a clinician specializing in trauma, and a program administrator with capacity to oversee a budget, develop P&P, and manage in-person and virtual trainings for clinical professionals across disciplines. I'm eager to focus my skills and energy towards a paradigm shift in mental health, to advance the practice of psychedelic-assisted therapy, and effectively shape the future of professional training and education for the next generation of innovation in mental health care.
