I have 27 years of experience working with the special needs population from children to senior citizens. I have advocated, provided habitation in the home and in the community, provided respite services, supports coordination and support broker services, job coaching services, community inclusion, and behavior consulting and ABA. I have worked for providers and I also was a supports coordinator for Chester County. I have a MS degree in criminal justice & applied behavior analysis from Saint Joseph's university. I also have a BA in Psychology from University. I enjoy working in this field because I feel every individual deserves to have a meaningful and productive day. I chose to always focus on individuals ability and not the disability. I look forward to hearing from you and working with you. I can provide private 1:1 overnight respite for challenging behaviors, etc.. I also provide cognitive rehabilitation therapy. please message me.
