Youth behavioral health educator mentoring kids through trauma-informed care and classroom stability.
United StatesWhat I'm looking for
I’ve spent 8+ years supporting children and adolescents in residential treatment and educational settings, including Wellspring Living and A Friend's House. At Wellspring Living, I provided trauma-informed behavioral health support, managed crises with verbal de-escalation, documented progress, and coached youth in emotional regulation and coping skills.
Earlier, I worked in direct residential care at a nonprofit emergency shelter, where I helped maintain structured routines, used positive behavior strategies to decrease target behaviors, and mentored youth through conflict resolution and life skills. I also served as an after-school counselor with the YMCA, implementing curriculum, leading STEM projects, and maintaining safe, proactive positive behavior support for kids ages 4–12.
