Therapeutic Assistant
Blue Bird Day Employee Since 2023

• CPR/First Aid

I’ve always had an interest in learning about people and how to better understand them, which led to me studying Psychology in undergrad. I have had several opportunities to work with children and young adults in a way that allowed me to aid in their development. I loved working with children and the environment at Blue Bird puts me in a position to follow my passions and develop my skills as I further my professional goals.

1. My current professional goal is to be come a Licensed Professional Counselor.

Bachelors in Psychology,
Concordia University Chicago

Working at Blue Bird has been a great experience. Everyone on the team is welcoming and easy to work with. I have also enjoyed working with the kids and seeing their progress every 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.
