Background

About Yahaira Castillo

Let's connect to explore how we can collaborate to make a difference in our communities. Based in Corpus Christi, TX, I am a Bilingual Licensed Master Social Worker and Certified Community Health Worker with over 5 years of experience dedicated to enhancing the well-being of underserved communities. My focus has been on improving the mental health of at-risk youth and adults, leveraging my bilingual skills to provide therapy in Spanish, overcome communication barriers, and translate complex resources for comprehensive care. My approach, rooted in rigorous research, has been honed through work in direct mental health practice, school social work, and community healthcare. My commitment to empathetic customer service and protecting personally identifiable information (PII) establishes me as a trusted advocate. Beyond direct practice, I excel in community support, demonstrating problem-solving and networking skills. My expertise spans education, mental health, nonprofits, social services, and healthcare, allowing me to make meaningful contributions in both direct and non-direct roles.
