About Me

I am in-between paraprofessional jobs and hope to eventually get my second M.A. degree to be a child and adolescent talk and play therapist.

Experience

I have worked as a paraprofessional, tutor, residential counselor, and student-therapist.

Approach

I like to bring joy and excitement to my work. I get to know my clients and make their work meaningful through real-life motivation. I often ask bigger picture questions to get the students to focus on the smaller details of their work.
