I'd describe my personality as kind, compassionate, and caring. I like caring for people with special needs because I have special needs as do my kids (both grown). I'm looking for a job that is flexible and will allow me to use my recently earned MSW to support neurodiverse individuals, their families, and loved ones. I started caring for people with special needs when I learned that my younger son has ADHD and ASD about 14 years ago. I was diagnosed as an adult with these conditions about a year following. In my spare time, I like to do arts and crafts, spend time with my family, watch movies, stream favorite series, walk my dog, and continue learning. One thing you should know about me is I'm very literal in my communication and I ask a lot of questions. My skills include but are not limited to engagement, active listening, and genuinely expressing empathy. My focus is strengths-based and client centered.
