About the Provider
For the last 15+ years, I have served as a Social Services Coordinator, a Home-based case manager, a Case Manager working with families receiving Family Support Waiver services and families referred by the Department of Child Services, Marion County Probation and Choice Coordinated Care solutions. I specialized in working with families of children with mental health diagnosis, developmental delays and medically fragile children with an average weekly full caseload. I was responsible for collaborating with interdisciplinary teams to coordinate, evaluate and monitor treatment plans to ensure successful completion of treatment plan goals for every family. As a longtime Case Manager working with families in crisis, I understand the importance of providing compassionate and personalized care. I've received extensive training in conflict resolution and de-escalation techniques. I pride myself on my ability to develop trusted relationships with families.
