About Dekonte

Experience: 3 yrs

Hello, My name is Dekonte. I am a 25 Y/O UT Austin graduate who recently moved back to Austin. I studied nutrition as an undergraduate and obtained a masters in social work in 2024. I am passionate about mental health care and working with children. I have multiple years of experience volunteering in the children's ministry of Midtown, a non-denominational Christian church in Austin, TX. I have also worked with adolescents as a mentor at North East Early College High School. I enjoy spending time with friends, reading fiction novels, and walking! Prior to moving back to Austin I worked as a grief counselor and staff social worker within palliative care at the Department of Veterans Affairs. I am the oldest of 3, I have a brother who is 17 and a sister who is 23. Over the years I have cared for many relatives of all ages (infants, toddlers, school aged, etc.). I am happy to provide any references necessary or answer any questions you may have. I look forward to speaking with you!
