🌻 Client Bio:

People appreciate my perseverance, kind spirit, empathy, and sense of humor. I'm becoming more independent, and I value being seen and supported in that growth. I care about having choices and being involved in decisions. I enjoy variety, being active in my community, and staying connected with family and friends. I love fashion, my hair, teen movies, dancing, and taking singing lessons. I also enjoy participating in sports and staying active. Clear communication and gentle prompts help me succeed. Using a "First, Then" approach and giving me extra wait time to respond works well. Time-frame reminders (5, 10, 15 minutes) help me prepare for transitions.

I can recognize when I'm overwhelmed and ask for support. Explaining risks and consequences helps me make informed choices. I'm a strong problem solver, but there are moments when responding is harder for me, so patience and understanding make a big difference.
