Associate Clinical Social Worker
Send a job offer directly to this candidate
I am an associate clinical social worker hoping to work in a private practice setting. My experience as a primary school-based therapist was focused on elementary through high school aged students with challenging behaviors, with primarily a trauma informed lens. My clients presented with many diagnoses--often alongside trauma--including ADHD and Autism Spectrum Disorder.
I would like to continue to expand my skills in individual, group, and family therapy.
Thank you for your consideration!
