Position: Clinical Counseling Associate
What led you to your current position? My supervisors and the classroom clinicians I've worked with have been awesome mentors and have encouraged me to become a CCA. After gaining some experience in the CCA role, I am now pursuing a Masters in Social Work.
What inspires you to do this work? My personal and family healing journey first brought me to this work. Now, I am constantly inspired by our clients and their perseverance through their own healing journeys. Our youth are so resilient, open to learning new skills and ideas, and have an innate sense of justice that is always inspiring to me.
What is a recent highlight you’ve experienced in the work or an important lesson you’ve learned in this role? As a lifelong caretaker, I've often found myself rushing to solve everyone's problems. In this work, I've learned the importance of providing space and empowering others to create their own solutions in their own way and timeline.
Share your life motto or something unique about yourself. I love roller skating and was a founding member of the first junior roller derby league.
