I have about 4 years experience working with the Special Needs needs population, 2 years working with the Geriatric population and 2 with the Mental Health population. I've had my degree in Psychology for two years and I'm working on my coursework to become a Board certified Assistant Applied Behavior Analysis. On a personal level, my son is diagnosed with Unspecified Nuerodevelopmental Disorder, and Articulation Disorder in Receptive and Expressive language. I am familiar with the services provided by professionals that usually come along with special needs individual. Also, I have engaged in therapies and interventions that teaches interventions for behavioral issues and understanding children's needs and creating opportunities a healthy balance between caregiver and child. Most of all I am excited to add my personal touch and care to all families I perform service for!
