Hi, my name is Lisa and I have a Masters degree in Special Education and a BA in Psychology. I have been working as a Behavior Therapist/Consultant with children on the autism spectrum for over 24 years. I have a passion for working with children and I LOVE helping everyone reach their fullest potential. My areas of expertise are teaching PLAY/SOCIAL skills, speech/ language, and academic skills. My rate is $90/hour from my home office. I'd describe my personality as fun, caring, friendly, energetic and kind! I LOVE doing play therapy, social skills therapy and facilitating play dates. I support kids in their school environment and train parents with how to help their kids . I started caring for people with special needs when I was in college in 1997. In my spare time, I like to hike, take walks, and spend time with my family. One thing you should know about me is I am hard working and kind. My skills include teaching play, social, language, and academic skills.

    Lisa is a very patient, passionate, and professional therapist. My kid has autism with short attention span. Lisa helps my kid set realistic goals and provides each session with fun, creative, and engaging activities. My kid is excited to go for every session with Lisa. I highly recommend Lisa to families with special needs children.
