Parent and Caregiver Pediatric and Adolescent Behavioral Coach
FreelanceParent and Caregiver Pediatric and Adolescent Behavioral Coach
Nov. 2020PennsylvaniaI work with diverse populations of caregivers and families to instill behavior analytic teachings and practices that have been shown to be backed by data and evidenced-based to bring calm and harmony between the caregivers and the child. I use a mixed modality of what is the socially meaningful for the child rather than a static one-size-fits all approach. I have over 10 years practicing the science of applied behavior analysis and I've been practicing as a Master's Level Clinician and now Board Certified Behavior Analyst for 8 years. I help families get to the root "function" of interfering behavior and skill deficits to help my client meet their fullest potential. I use trauma-informed approaches and I am always seeking out additional mentorship and education to keep my practices in-line with my ethical code brought forth by the BACB. I have worked Early Intervention as young as 18 months up to age 21 years of age and across various diagnoses not just Autism Spectrum Disorder. I am also a parent of an autistic child and I strive each day to advocate for his rights and the right of his peers.

Sep. 2017Pennsylvania, United StatesI work to fill in the gaps between neurodiverse services on both a small-scale (caregivers) and large-scale (organizations) by bringing resources and education and standing alongside my clients until we meet their individualistic goals. I proudly support mental health initiatives whether that’s through Neuroaffirming advocacy work with the whole family or as an in-the-know educator on the challenges/successes aligned with having a mental health diagnosis or loving someone with a diagnosis. I’ve used over 10 years of knowledge and experiences to evolve my coaching and mentoring practices so they can be applied 1:1 or for a whole organization.
