Carpinelli had previously worked in the role of floating therapist.

In her new role, Carpinelli will write programs for skills development, counseling and other developmental services for more than a dozen BCI clients in Central Massachusetts who are living with autism. Those programs can consist of social skills, community safety skills, academic and pre-academic skills, classroom participation and health and ADL skills.

“Tiffany has shown herself to be a caring and able therapist who has a gift in teaching our clients,” said BCI Founder and Director Dr. Jeff Robinson. “Over the three years she’s been with BCI, she’s grown both as a person and as a therapist. We’re proud of her accomplishments so far and eager to see her continue that growth in this new role as clinical coordinator.”

A lifelong Worcester resident, Carpinelli attended Worcester State University and earned a Bachelor of Science degree in psychology. In addition to her duties at BCI, she’s also working towards a master’s degree in Applied Behavioral Analysis at Kaplan University, where she’s an active volunteer in the school’s Autism Speaks® program.

“Working at BCI has been a wonderful learning experience for me and I’ve met some tremendous kids and families,” said Carpinelli. “In this new role, I’m hoping to take what I’ve learned as a therapist and create programs that help our clients develop the skill they need to successfully navigate their daily lives.”
