I’m passionate about helping people achieve a balanced and healthy lifestyle. I’m an active listener who is empathetic and supportive without judgment or prejudice, and I believe in the human potential to heal and succeed.
Provided support to youth who struggle with autism. The work taught me a lot about acceptance and seeing where the client is at. My role is to make sure the client is reducing harmful behaviors and his/her wellness can increase as well as his/her success and function.
Provided support and case management (home-based services). The focus was to meet the client (child/teen) in person at least once a week and to work with him/her on his goals and treatment plan. Used behavioral approaches, CBT approaches, and therapeutic skills to support clients in their journey for well-being and to reduce mental health symptoms such as depression, anxiety, eating disorders, and PTSD.
Combination of case management and harm reduction. Supported individuals to reduce harm and practice healthier ways to feel better. Included Motivational Interviewing, crisis interventions, and emotional support using skills such as active listening, empathy, and acceptance.

Worked with adults with dual-diagnosis: Addiction and mental health issues. Provided support, care, and facilitated coping skills groups. Ensured clients followed house/community rules and their treatment plan as part of their recovery. work_ex
