Position: Clinical Supervisor
What led you to your current position? While I was a clinician, I did not see a lot of folks in clinical leadership positions that looked like me and I wanted to be a part of changing that perception. That combined with my previous program leadership team encouraging me to develop in that direction led me to pursue this role with our amazing UE West Bay team.
What inspires you to do this work? Supporting therapists in bringing their true authentic selves into this work while also watching them grow professionally. All the while providing clients and families with the care that they need.
What is a recent highlight you’ve experienced in the work or an important lesson you’ve learned in this role? A recent highlight has been watching another one of our clinicians obtain licensure. (Shout out to Shaina!) There is nothing like getting to celebrate our clinicians when they reach a goal that it took them years to work towards.
Share your life motto: My life's motto is "protect your peace at all costs".
Something unique: I am not a big fan of the spotlight. Agreeing to do this highlight is so far out of my comfort zone, it would take a parachute for me to find it again. When I was younger, the best woman I know (my grandma) told me "Your best growing happens when you're uncomfortable, so you better get used to it".
