Behavioral health outreach & operations

Stronger relationships.
Clearer pathways to care.

I bring together referral development, admissions, practice operations, and team building to help behavioral health organizations connect people with care and strengthen the teams behind it.

Los Angeles, California

About

People and processes.
One connected perspective.

My behavioral health experience spans frontline patient support, case management, admissions, practice operations, and clinical outreach. That range has given me a practical understanding of both the relationships that bring people into care and the coordination that supports them once they arrive.

Strong rapport building is central to my work with patients, families, clinical teams, and community partners. I bring particular skill in supporting justice-impacted individuals and people with high-acuity mental health needs. Across detox, substance use treatment, and outpatient psychiatry settings, I focus on respectful communication, thoughtful follow-through, and workable processes.

I’m passionate about bringing people of ability and character together. To me, team building means connecting individual strengths with a shared purpose.

Referral development

Connecting referral partners with psychiatric care

In my outreach role with an outpatient psychiatry practice, I build relationships with Los Angeles treatment programs and outpatient providers through recurring outreach, direct calls, and meetings with clinical and program leaders. I represent the practice at provider in-services and community events, sharing information about TMS, MAT/LAI services, and psychiatric care coordination.

My work also includes coordinating communication across clinical, administrative, and community partner teams. For referred patients and families, I manage the warm handoff from first contact through intake and the start of treatment.

Admissions

Coordinating insurance verification, prescreening, and intake

I bring knowledge of commercial insurance plans and strong skills in prescreening and intake completion. In a treatment-coordination role, I developed and implemented an insurance-verification workflow, checked benefits against admission standards, and helped develop admissions policies.

I managed inbound inquiries, coordinated scheduling, and guided prospective patients through prescreening and intake. I use strong rapport-building skills and respectful, nonjudgmental communication to support patients and families, including justice-impacted individuals, from the first inquiry through completed intake.

Practice operations

Supporting outpatient psychiatry and TMS operations

As Director of Operations/Admissions Coordinator for an outpatient psychiatry and TMS practice, I defined, implemented, and revised admissions and operational policies. I also operated TMS equipment and led quality-control initiatives related to therapy delivery, safety, and operational effectiveness.

In a later role with the practice, I assisted in training new technicians on TMS device use and supported patients and families throughout the TMS experience. This work combined operational responsibilities with hands-on treatment-program support.

I also bring knowledge of CRM implementation and advanced proficiency with electronic medical record (EMR) and electronic health record (EHR) software to support documentation, patient coordination, and practice workflows.

Team building

Connecting good people with strong teams

I have helped fill roles through my professional network, bringing capable, principled people into teams. I value seeing them combine their strengths and work toward a shared purpose.
