Therapeutic Assistant
Blue Bird Day Employee Since 2023

Bachelor of Science in Psychology,
University of Illinois at Chicago

1. I hope to successfully develop and strengthen any skill necessary to be able to help anyone and everyone I come across.
2. I hope to figure out exactly what psychological career path I want to pursue.
3. I plan to go back to school and earn a Master’s degree in Psychology.

I decided to pursue a degree and career in the psychology field because I have always wanted to dedicate my life to helping people understand their own mind, emotions, etc. I have always found myself to be extremely empathetic with others, especially with children. I am hoping that my bachelor’s degree in psychology and my drive to always offer aid to others can be found useful at 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.
