I am a highly enthusiastic Social Worker with the experience of working with people experiencing crisis or people who are socially excluded. I have provided support to enable service users to help themselves. I maintain professional relationships with service users, acting as a guide, advocate or as a critical friend. Unfortunately due to a stress related disorder I had to reduce my working hours and change my working environment, I would prefer to work on a one to one basis. I have also decided to bring my social skills into care and be more involved with the people I help.
