I am very proud of my experience providing supervision. It is an incredible feeling of shared joy to be a part of personal growth and professional development. I motivate my professional licensure supervisees to realize their professional goals by sharpening their skill sets and provide them with strategies to strengthen the role of social work at their work place.

I am approved by the Washington State Department of Health to provide clinical supervision for Social Workers and other Mental Health Professionals seeking supervision.

During my 5 years of service as a Medical Social Worker at Evergreen Hospital in Kirkland, Washington, I served as a Clinical Instructor and Clinical liaison for MSW students from the University of Washington. During that time I have Instructed and co-instructed over 15 students. I was awarded Clinical Instructor of the Year from the University of Washington in 2006, and have received multiple nominations for this award from my students. Clinical Instruction has always been a passion of mine, and a great way to give back to the community. In the 2007 -2008 academic year, I led Evergreen Hospital to host as many students as UWMC and Harborview MC combined, and was second only to the VA. In 2008, I was recognized at the UWSSW award ceremony for innovative teaching styles.
At my time at Providence Regional Medical Center in Everett, I also served as the Clinical Student Liaison for UW SSW Affiliate students and helped build the student program there as well.
I currently supervise more than 25 MSW's and other Mental Health Clinicians and they have had great success in enhancing their clinical practices and realizing their professional goals.

I look forward to getting to know you and helping you realize your goals. Please feel free to email or call with any questions.
