I'd describe my personality as caring, genuine and empathetic. I like caring for people with special needs because I have always had a passion for helping individuals in need in general. I enjoy the day-to-day interactions and being able to see how my work improves the lives of my clients and their families. I started caring for people with special needs when I was fresh out of high school. My mother has been in this field for 6 years and I always took the opportunity to volunteer at her jobs if possible. In 2021, I stopped working as an MA and became a behavioral therapist for young children. I've worked with young children, teens, adults and seniors all within 5 years total. In my spare time, I like to read, cook, draw, and take care of my daughter. One thing you should know about me is I am trained in crisis communication, crisis intervention, and de-escalation tactics. I have dealt with every behavior that comes to mind, and I always show grace, compassion and undying support.
