Position: Mental Health Counselor
What led you to your current position? I have been working with children and families for as long as I can remember. It all started with my previous working experience as a respite care provider in Santa Clara County. I have always enjoyed working with children and making a positive impact in their lives as little as the impact may be. As I gained further experience in this field of work, I wanted to do something more. That is when I found Seneca and I immediately knew this was for me.
What inspires you to do this work? There are many things that inspire me to continue this work. However, one of the important things that appeal the most to me is the progress our clients make and the wonderful relationships that we form with not only our client but their families as well. There is nothing more meaningful than making a difference in our community.
What is a recent highlight you’ve experienced in the work or an important lesson you’ve learned in this role? I've definitely learned the meaning of personal growth. Through my experience thus far, with Seneca I have found what's important to me both personally and professionally. I've just finished my bachelor's degree and will be starting my masters in Marriage and Family Therapy this upcoming fall.
Share your life motto or something unique about yourself. Something that I always remind myself of is that it is important to make sure that we take care of ourselves before we care for others.
