See my MSW Final Portfolio here: https://asu.digication.com/lauren-gamble-1I am a social work professional passionately engaged in the field with a keen interest in expanding my expertise beyond my foundational experiences with boys and young men, seeking further learning opportunities as a new Associate Social Worker (ASW). My enriching tenure at Greenacre Homes and School as a Residential Social Worker encompassed roles as a therapist, case manager, group therapist, school therapist, and leadership team member. This diverse engagement offered me a profound understanding of client assessments, treatment planning, and group therapy facilitation, building a solid base in collaborative, multidisciplinary client support techniques.While the hospitality industry has sharpened my customer service and interpersonal skills through roles as a Server and Bartender, these experiences have been instrumental in enhancing my adaptability, problem-solving capabilities, and ability to effectively interact within varied environments, directly benefiting my social work endeavors.My commitment extends to my role as a Mentor with Mentor Me, where I focus on fostering safe, inclusive spaces for young people, guiding them through their personal and academic journeys.Holding an ASW registration from the BBS, a Master in Social Work from Arizona State University, a Bachelor of Arts in Sociology from Sonoma State University, and an Associate of Arts in Humanities and Social and Behavioral Sciences from Santa Rosa Junior College, where I also obtained an Associate Teacher Certificate in Child Development, my academic and professional journey is geared towards leveraging my broad skills set to profoundly impact the social work field.
Listed skills include Good Time Management, Experience In Customer Service, Hard Worker, Illustrator, and 21 others.
