Hello, my name is Arika Pochervina and I am a behavioral technician at our Butte location. I’m currently a student through the University of Montana and will graduate in December with my bachelor's degree in Communicative Sciences and Disorders. I plan to continue my education through graduate school in order to become a Speech Language Pathologist.

‍

Being a mom to three children, I knew working with kids was the path I wanted to take with my career. At ATC, I am able to help kids grow and become more independent, while also learning a great deal from them at the same time. I feel lucky to be able to spend my days surrounded by such wonderful clients and a motivating team.

‍

When I am not at ATC, I am planning and decorating events which is a true passion of mine.

‍

When I am not working or studying, I can be found spending time with my husband and kids.

We love to go boating and spend as much time as possible on the lake with friends and family.

Being born and raised in Butte, I know how short summer is in Montana, so we try and make the most of it!
