I recently retired after 25 years teaching students with autism and developmental delays. I worked for 22 years at Cooperative Educational Services (CES) in Trumbull, CT. I spent 9 years in classrooms with students 5 to 13. I spent 9 years providing home and community services to children and families as a Birth to Three provider. My last 4 years were in the Transition Program, with 18-22-year-old students. I learned from amazing OT/PT/SLP/BCBAs. I thrive as part of a team and incorporate sensory integration, augmentative communication and positioning in my work. I look at the child's environment and consider other antecedent conditions as well as staff/caregiver variables when examining behavior and adjusting expectations for diverse situations. My expertise is facilitating communication, social interaction, and emotional regulation skills. I would be pleased to talk with you about my qualifications and the needs of your child. Please don't hesitate to message me.
