Career Readiness

Dr. Llewellyn has a depth and range of experience in university settings. She previously worked as a Clinical Social Worker and Coordinator of Services for First Generation/Limited Income students at John Hopkins University Counseling Center and as a Clinical Instructor at Yale University. In addition, she has extensive community mental health experience working with juvenile offenders, children and adolescents with severe psychiatric needs, low-income communities, trauma survivors, emerging adolescents, and medical social work. She also owns and operates a private practice where she serves a diverse population of clients. She earned her DSW from the University of Southern California, MSW from Hunter College, and BS in Social Work and AS in Liberal Arts with a minor in Psychology from Medgar Evers College.

“Foundational to my work,” said Dr. Llewellyn, “is a commitment and passion for racial and social justice, liberation of oppressed and marginalized populations, and advancing diversity and inclusion in all spaces. Equity in mental health is non-negotiable, so my clinical style incorporates narrative therapy through an ecological, cross-cultural, interpersonal, and multicultural lens. It is necessary to add that treatment is person-centered and flexibility in approaches helps me meet the needs of clients."
