Work History
My work experience in the mental health field started in 2017 when I interned at Southern Connecticut State University's Marriage and Family Therapy Clinic, where I would one day attend as a graduate student. I then worked at Fellowship Place as an Employment Specialist briefly before moving on to Continuum of Care, where I worked as a Community Support Assistant in the Young Adult Services program for four years. While earning my Masters in Family Therapy, I interned at Triangle Community Center. After graduating, I split my time working for Assured Peaceful Solutions and Coastal Connecticut Counseling. As of March 2024, I work full-time at Assured Peaceful Solutions as a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and AAMFT Approved Supervisor candidate. Overall, my mental health experience spans 8+ years!
