My name is Tim Elias, and I have recently completed the line therapy workshop at Harmony House and would now like to put the skills I learned to use. I do not have any experience in this field though, but am ready and willing to learn. The little experience I do have though is through a family who I am very close with has a son who has been doing ABA therapy since he was two. Getting to know him and spending time with him has shown me how effective ABA can be, its truly amazing and something I would love to be a part of. I am friendly, athletic and outgoing. I have full availability through til next fall when I will be going to University but would love to continue even through next fall with modified hours of course. I currently live in Abbotsford with my own transportation, and am hoping to move to Vancouver December 1st I am willing to commute though so anywhere in the lower mainland should work, preferably in Vancouver though.

Re: Second year UBC student looking for a position as a line therapist

Annelise attends UBC and lives near Children's Hospital (at King Ed and Oak). Therefore, she can only consider positions accessible by bus or skytrain within a reasonable distance. Thank you again to those who responded. Please see Annelise's ad listed again below.
