Elise Ipock, M.S.
Profile: Hi, my name is Elise I would like to tell you a few things
about myself and my experience in human services. I began to be
interested in rehabilitation psychology as a senior in college. My first
internship was at a school for children with developmental
disabilities. I worked in a classroom for teenagers with autism,
helping with group and individual teaching projects. The emphasis of
my graduate studies was rehabilitation of people with brain injuries.
After graduating with a master's in rehabilitation psychology, I
worked with people who had physical as well as developmental
disabilities. I was trained in applied behavior assessment and have
worked with people with developmental disabilities in both home and
employment settings since 1998.
I moved to West Lafayette, Indiana with my husband in 2005. In
March 2006, I began employment with Meaningful Day Services, Inc. I
am currently taking new clients in Tippecanoe County.
