I am 24 years old. I am a graduate student at a university studying for my MS in Counselor Education (School Counseling) and will graduate in 2017. I've worked in mental health, education and have my BA in Psychology from a university. I have volunteered in SPED classrooms (high school) and more recently worked for several months at a private therapeutic foster home with 3 children with Autism and one child with mental illness. I love working with children with special needs because of their varying personalities, tenacity and smiles.
