In December of 2013, I successfully earned a Bachelor's degree in Psychology with a minor in Sociology from the University of Pittsburgh. I elected to take various education credits (including foundations of special education) to work towards that degree, with a focus in child development. Most recently I have worked as a TSS providing individualized therapeutic support to children with diagnosed mental health disorders. As a Therapeutic Support Staff, it has been my job to provide direct services for children by partnering with their caregivers to implement appropriate treatment interventions, help the child eliminate inappropriate behaviors, provide emotional support to the child and family, and assist those responsible for the child in fostering greater independence and socially responsible behavior. I have a sound knowledge of Applied Behavioral Analysis, as well as in-depth knowledge of crisis intervention, behavior management, and safety awareness. I also have the ability to build healthy therapeutic relationships and empower primary caregivers through a transfer of skills.
