A Behavioural Therapist Assistant (BTA) at Kevria, I wasn't always set on this career path. But after a recommendation from a colleague and a leap of faith, I found myself a year into a role that's been "truly rewarding".

"My role goes beyond just assistance; I provide encouragement and motivation, helping clients step outside their comfort zones and try new things."

A Supportive Leap into a New Career

Looking for a fresh start, I found myself Kevria through a friend's recommendation. Taking the chance, I joined the team and haven't looked back. Kevria's supportive environment has fostered a love for the work, making it a truly enriching experience.

Community and Connection: A Day in the Life of a BTA

My days are filled with venturing into the community alongside clients. This could involve helping them with tasks at home, or venturing out for leisure activities and social events. My role goes beyond just assistance; I provide encouragement and motivation, helping clients step outside their comfort zones and try new things. Just recently, I witnessed a client's accomplishment of joining a gym for the first time. This is a testament to the positive impact Kevria have on their clients' lives.

Growth and Transformation

Kevria hasn't just been a place of work for myself; it's been a place of immense personal growth. Looking back on my journey, I acknowledge the vast number of new skills I acquired while working with clients. More importantly, Kevria has helped me discover my own capabilities and instilled a sense of confidence to push past boundaries and embrace challenges.
