Personal Statement

I am deeply committed to providing high quality, behavioral health services within an integrated primary care setting to underserved populations. It is my goal that by providing these services within a primary care setting, patients are able to access care without the impediments of traditional barriers. As a clinician educator, I strive to provide future mental health providers with clinical experiences emphasizing culturally competent, evidenced-based care. I am realizing these goals as the Associate Medical Director of Behavioral Health at TCP Westwood. In this role, I provide direct patient care, supervise the clinical work of learners and behavioral health clinical therapists, and serve in an administrative capacity in which I create and monitor policies and procedures.
