A patient, kind, and confident problem-solver, I have thrived in many therapeutic support roles including residential caregiver, Skills Trainer for foster youth, wellness instructor, and Employment Specialist for DD/ID adults, and DSP. My diverse and well-developed skill set also includes tutoring a variety of subjects and teaching movement arts and fitness. I've had a person-centered, trauma-informed approach since before I knew the terms and am deeply proud of my clients and the outcomes they achieved. I seek to nurture independence, personal growth, and self-worth as I guide individuals towards their goals while fostering their ability to grow within their natural supports. My own successes navigating ADHD/ASD inform all of my work. Due to volume of inquiries, if you don't have a posted ad, please send specifics re: Needs, Rate, and Schedule.
