Member for: 31 weeks 5 hours

Experience:

Working in the nonprofit sector as a counselor, social worker, and preschool teacher, I have had to be creative in making ends meet. I have a B.A. in child development and a M.A. in counseling psychology.

Long bio:

I have worked with homeless people, trauma survivors, and people healing from grief and loss. I love to travel and in college I volunteered in an orphanage in Calcutta for four months and worked with children in Mexico. I most recently provided psychotherapy and art therapy in a non profit mental health clinic. I quit my job to go on maternity leave last year after the birth of my baby. I am a creative person who loves to learn. I am now a freelance writer glad to be working with WB.
