I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and have extensive experience working as a clinical supervisor at a large Bay Area agency focused on children and families as well as at an Oakland-based methadone clinic. I am able to provide weekly supervision to pre-licensed Associate Social Workers (ASW), Marriage and Family Therapists (AMFT) and Professional Clinical Counselor (APCC) and in a variety of settings, including government agencies, hospitals, schools, and community mental health settings.
I approach individual supervision and professional consultation with a compassionate, open, and adaptable approach. Your professional development as a supervisee and the achievement of positive client outcomes are my greatest priorities. Together, we will collaborate and explore innovative strategies to address even the most complex clinical cases through engaging and constructive discussions. I also guide supervisees through successful preparation for the BBS Board Exams.
If you aspire to become a licensed professional in the mental health field and are seeking guidance to reach your goal, I’m here to help. Please feel free to reach out for a complimentary consultation to get started on your journey toward success.
