Additional Areas of Expertise

Having worked in the industry for over 16 years, most of my work has been supporting diverse populations with high acuity needs. This has involved providing resources and referrals, teaching life skills, being an active participant in advocacy efforts, and engaging in therapeutic interventions to work towards recovery goals. As a result, I am confident in supporting the following challenges:​​

​

  • Grief and loss (death of a loved one, job loss/career change, relationship loss)

  • Life stressors and transitions

  • Low to moderate acuity anxiety

  • Self-concept (self-image, ideal self, self-esteem)

  • Distress tolerance, emotion regulation, interpersonal effectiveness (not actively suicidal)
