About Maritza Soto, Ph.D.
I’m seeking a Registered Mental Health Counseling Intern position. I am the perfect fit for this role in your establishment because I have 10+ years of experience in the Mental Health field working with children, adolescents, and Adults. Additionally, I have qualitative and quantitative research experience on topics regarding Mental Health, Domestic Violence, Sexual Assault, Intimate Partner Violence, Mother's sensitive to touch and Employees with Mental Health Disabilities. In 2011, I obtained exposure to research as a SROP recipient at Michigan State University, including collecting data, analyzing data, collaborating with other scientists and researchers, and presenting at the national research conferences at The Ohio State University. In 2012, I studied abroad in the Dominican Republic which introduced me to conducting independent research in a third world country. This research experience awarded me 1st place at the Black Psychology National Student Conference in South Florida in 2013. The research and leadership skills I acquired in the field of education included the Department of Psychology at Florida A&M University. I assisted teaching statistics at the graduate course, and the undergraduate course level. Later, I obtained teaching positions for Miami-Dade County Public Schools and the private sector in Career, Research and Development. Soon after, I transitioned to work for the Adult Education Department to create a career ready teacher guide that reflected the workforce, college, and vocational track for the Spanish speaking population. I have experience serving as a School Counselor for middle and High School. Much of my role involved educating students of the different career paths, counseling, conducting behavioral assessments, facilitating monthly parent workshops regarding topics related to managing a teen and parenting, among other roles. These experiences have built my professional experience which is why I will make a great fit as a Registered Mental Health Counseling Intern in your company• 2015 - Served as Interim Operations Director of Wisdom’s Wellspring Transitional Housing Program for homeless women. • 2011- Served as Board of Directors in Wisdom’s Wellspring Women’s Ministry Qualifications:Bilingual-English/Spanish, Mental Health assessments, behavioral assessments, risk assessments, Play Therapy, Person-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness, and Support Group Facilitator.
