Trainer/Occupational Therapy Assistant
“I am a Certified Occupational Therapy Assistant. Occupational Therapy seeks to understand a person in their entirety to identify any obstacles that may prevent them from doing what they need or want to do. At Friendship Circle, I use my education to identify obstacles that may be a barrier for our trainees in the workforce. We also identify our trainees’ strengths and teach them to use those strengths as tools to grow. My favorite component of our employment training program is the close relationships that we build with our trainees. It is so special to be able to connect with our trainees and share life experiences, senses of humor, and build confidence together”
