🔦Staff Spotlight:
Meet Josiah, one of our incredible Lead RBTs! Josiah brings dedication, patience, and a true passion for helping our clients grow every day.
Not only does he lead by example in his work with clients and supporting fellow RBTs, but he's also advancing his education. He’s currently enrolled in a master's program for Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA)!
We’re so proud to have Josiah on our team. His commitment to learning and providing high-quality care embodies everything we value at Expressions.
Thank you, Josiah, for your commitment and the positive impact you make every day!
What do you love most about being an RBT?
I love being part of a positive team that is committed to providing high-fidelity, high-quality behavior services to families that really need them. I love that we have a work culture of affirmation and positivity, and I'm excited to see how people, clients, and clinicians are able to develop within that environment. And I love the kids here! They really are the best, most vibrant, hardest-working, and funniest kids in the world! They make Expressions an amazing place to work.
What is one piece of advice you would give to new or future employees?
Treat every session like it's your one chance to make a positive difference in your client's life. Put everything you can into it, think about how each program, each game, each interaction can be used to give a tool that will help them later in life.
What is your favorite quote?
"All that we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us." Gandalf from The Lord of the Rings
Do you have any animals?
No, but someday we want a Great Pyrenees!
What are your hobbies?
I love to play music SO MUCH. I play guitar and write songs. I love nature (hiking, climbing trees, kayaking); I love reading and writing (someday I'll finish that book...); and I also love art. My family goes to every art museum we can. You'll find us at the Nelson-Atkins most weekends!
What inspired you to join Expressions?
I was interested in joining Expressions because when I visited it seemed like a group of people that deeply care about kids. There was an energy of nurture and vibrancy that I was excited to be part of. I think this is a really special team of people, and I'm blessed to be part of it.
Join us in thanking Josiah for all the incredible work he does!
