Meet Danyelle
While she loves working with children, she was drawn to Behavioral Learning due to our focus on mental health and inclusion of clients in treatment and programming. Danyelle is passionate about helping her clients feel safe, supported, and confident as they navigate and broaden their worlds. As part of achieving this goal, she is a strong supporter of creating and utilizing visual tools and restructuring the environment to help her clients (and herself) achieve goals. In her free time, she enjoys spending time in nature, taking walks and training for half-marathons, and reading.
