Hi There! My name is Theresa. For the last 10 years, I've worked hands on with children, teenagers and young adults who have special needs. I have experience as a respite specialist , community habilitation worker, a group recreational program supervisor, a paraprofessional and most recently as an ABA therapist. These last few years, I've learned to help and teach my clients IADLS, ADLS, life skills and safety. While I was a paraprofessional I learned how to work with teachers to ensure each student gets the right guidance to excel. I feel like with my experiences I can be molded into many types of roles to help both the parents as well as the students.
