Rose Capuzzi

Behaviorist

Rose Capuzzi began working with Kelsch Associates in January 2019 as a Residential Behaviorist. Rose works with our consumers who exhibit behavioral challenges and works with staff on how to follow interventions to help provide support to these consumers when challenging behaviors arise. She meets with consumers weekly to provide support in their homes. She brings ten years of experience in the field of Social Work to our agency. Her prior experience includes working as an Outpatient Therapist where she facilitated group therapy for adults who suffered from Schizophrenia, Loss and Grief Counseling Groups and Social Groups for individuals with intellectual disabilities and mental health disorders.

Rose has also worked as a Behavior Specialist Consultant with children and adolescents in the home, school and community setting to manage behaviors. She worked with families on understanding the function behind these behaviors, how to modify these behaviors and reinforce positive behaviors. Rose is passionate about helping others and her favorite part of working at Kelsch Associates is being able to see consumers daily and see growth in the individuals she works with.
