Work HistoryMy clinical work has involved working with a diverse group of individuals living with an array of mental health issues including, but not limited to, anxiety, depression, self-esteem issues, trauma, difficult life changes, stress management, anger management, etc. In the past 7 years of being a therapist, I have worked in various settings from providing intensive therapeutic support to rendering outpatient therapeutic services. Additionally, part of my work has involved building relationships with community resources as I believe my clients benefit from therapy that also connects them to natural supports in their environments to ensure ongoing support and growth well after therapy has ended.
