  I provided daily therapeutic care for severely emotionally disturbed youths along with on-going monitoring of the students’ level of functioning and crisis intervention when was clinically indicated. My counseling skills developed as I served as an active listener to the students’ concerns and supported adaptive and pro-social problem solving skills. As part of a therapeutic milieu, I communicated observations and concerns with the clinical team so that the student's strengths and weakness could be fully recognized and improved upon. An important aspect of my work was completing quarterly reports on goal progress in a timely manner, along with attending IEP and quarterly review meetings.
