I have a deep understanding of the dynamics of domestic abuse and the impact it has on individuals, families, and communities. My experience in conducting risk assessments and safety planning has enabled me to effectively assess the level of danger and provide tailored support to meet the unique needs of each survivor. Additionally, I am proficient in conducting psychosocial assessments, providing counseling and emotional support, and connecting survivors with community resources and referrals.

I am able to establish a rapport with survivors quickly and provide a safe and supportive space for them to share their experiences. My ability to actively listen and show understanding and empathy has been commended by both survivors and colleagues.
I am also drawn to Magellan Health’s location in Colorado Springs. Having lived in this community for the past ten years, I have developed a deep understanding of the resources available for survivors of domestic violence in this area. I am committed to utilizing my knowledge and connections to provide the best support to survivors and make a positive impact in the community.
