Maxfield Benton, COTA
Certified Occupational Therapy Assistant (COTA)
Max earned a Bachelor's degree in Computer Animation and Game Design at CSU Chico, but realized computer science was not his passion and went on to get an Associates as an Occupational Therapy Assistant from American Career College. Using his background in game design and his personal experiences growing up as a child with undiagnosed Autism (Lvl 1) and ADHD he strives to structure his treatments to promote skills in a fun, rewarding, and neuroaffirming way.
In his down time, Max enjoys playing video games, card games, board games and painting Warhammer miniatures. He feels fulfilled that he gets to help others find the skills they need to get through life and promote acceptance of neurodivergence and is incredibly lucky to have found a group of likeminded individuals at WonderLab!
