My Story
I have a family member with Down Syndrome who is very active in the special education community. I have always found interest in helping those with special needs and helped my cousin with many of her extracurricular activities. I was always interested in the Autism community and I have found my passion in ABA therapy.
My Education
Bachelor of Art in Psychology,
University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign
My Professional Goals
- I graduated with my Bachelor’s degree in December 2021 and began a graduate degree in ABA in January 2022 to become a BCBA.
Blue Bird Day
Blue Bird Day fosters socialization, sensory regulation, and pre-academic learning in children ages 2–7 years in therapeutic rotations that simulate preschool and kindergarten settings. Our compassionate therapists practice a relationship-based and family-centered approach, provide parent training, and collaborate on goals and individualized intensive treatment plans for your child.
We believe in a collaborative and multi-disciplinary team approach to therapy. A team of occupational therapists, speech-language pathologists, dietitians, developmental therapists, behavioral therapists, physical therapists, and therapeutic assistants are created for each child to ensure child and family are fully supported and the best possible results are achieved.
Options for individualized, group and virtual therapy sessions are available as well.
