Stefanie Lantigua BA

Special Needs Behavior Assistant

Hi everyone, my name is Stefanie Lantigua and I am a Behavior Assistant. I have a bachelor’s degree in Psychology with a minor in Social Justice Studies from The College of New Jersey. I specialize in working with young adolescents with special needs and behavior challenges.

As a Behavior Assistant, I strive to maintain a supportive and inclusive environment in which my clients can thrive in. In addition, I have several years of experience working in the education field with children ages 2-17 which allows me to approach my sessions through the eyes of both an educator and therapist. I am passionate about motivating my clients to reach their fullest potential while emphasizing the importance of family collaboration and support. I believe in the potential of every child no matter the diagnosis and am committed to making a meaningful impact in their lives.
