I am an Associate Clinical Social Worker with MindDivers in Visalia and Fresno. I have been providing individual therapy at MindDivers Visalia and Fresno locations since October 2023. In addition to individual therapy, I have 3 years experience in Therapeutic Behavioral Services, working with children and families who experience symptoms and behaviors related to trauma and mental health diagnosis. I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy therapeutic techniques and interventions with patients to teach and practice adaptive skills, to reduce and/or replace maladaptive skills and behaviors. I strive to provide a patient strengths based approach, to ensure my patients are getting what they specifically want and need from their therapy services. I had a brief experience providing ABA services to children with Autism Spectrum Disorder for 1 year from 2018-2019. Prior to that, I was a Vocational and Life Skills Coach teaching and mentoring adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities from 2014 to 2018.
