Camille is a licensed social worker, psychotherapist and behavioral specialist who received her Master’s Degree in Social Work with an emphasis in Mental and Behavioral Health from the University of Hawai’i at Manoa. With over ten years experience working with adolescents, young adults, and families in outdoor, educational and therapeutic settings she brings a dynamic style, utilizing a strength-based approach.
Camille began her journey with Pacific Quest in 2011 as a guide for the Adolescent Program where she become passionate and skilled in horticultural therapy and our holistic approach. Camille’s hard work in the field propelled her into a supervisory role for both the Adolescent and Young Adult Programs, which eventually developed into her role of Staff Manager, for which she received a company excellence award.
In 2015, Camille pursued her Master’s Degree in Social Work, with the goal of returning to Pacific Quest as a therapist. Since that time she worked with military families facilitating individual, group and family psychotherapy, utilizing Parent-Child Interaction Therapy. She also worked with a local behavioral health organization where she supported young people with learning differences and emotional challenges in the development of improved esteem, study habits and communication skills. Camille has provided home-based wraparound for youth at-risk of school failure and has also spent a decade working with a non-profit foundation that makes it possible for youth from different backgrounds to enjoy the Sierra Nevada backcountry.
Building strong relationships with students, Camille provides a foundation to address challenging behaviors and interpersonal issues. With experience from field to management in the mental health field and family support services, Camille brings a confident, calm and deliberate approach to her work with students and families.
The use of Hawaiian culture, the integrative wellness approach and the focus on experiential learning through horticultural therapy are what originally drew Camille to Pacific Quest. Many of the activities that are incorporated into the PQ student program directly reflect Camille’s passion outside of work. In her free time, you will probably find Camille at the beach with friends, hiking to the closest waterfall, or practicing yoga with her sister.
Parent Testimonials: Camille was OUTSTANDING! The communication was outstanding at every level – goal setting, regularity, insightfulness, and helpfulness. Camille made such a difference in the life of our son.
