Welcome to my profile. I am a skilled clinical leader with extensive experience driving results for behavioral programs and individual and group counseling. I am now in private practice and currently am involved in mindfulness and meditation activities, as well as community outreach. I am passionate about what I do because I provide the support clients need to change their lives. I am recognized by my colleagues as an expert in DDS program development and operations, but I can do so much more. I am sought out by colleagues and providers, alike, as the person who can problem-solve difficult issues, develop a strategic plan, and assist them in its tactical implementation. I also have a natural talent for building quick rapport and trust with clients. In my practice, I am now helping clients, with a variety of presenting symptoms and diagnoses, to improve their lives. Within my office environment, I am a leader with a track record of working hands-on with teams to deliver clinical care and treatment and the complete process improvement and program initiatives to meet regulatory and standards requirements. I know I am only as good as the teams I lead, so I take time to coach and mentor each person for career growth and long-term success. As a result, I am able to create an environment of team spirit with high levels of employee engagement and performance. My key areas of expertise include, but are not limited to, Strategic Planning & Execution, Operations Management, Budget & Financial Management, Behavior Support Plans, DDS Program Review & Support, Curriculum Development, Intake & Behavioral Assessments, Individual & Group Counseling, Community Outreach, and Staff & Client Training.
