Lifeworks Autism Services

At Lifeworks Autism Services, we’re proud to highlight the people whose dedication strengthens our mission every day with another STAFF SPOTLIGHT! Today, we’re celebrating Brian Feitl, our Coordinator of Behavioral Health, therapist, and the leader of our Behavioral Health Respite Program.

Brian brings a thoughtful, relationship centered approach to every role he takes on. His work is grounded in forming strong therapeutic connections, collaborating closely with his team, and supporting clients as they grow in confidence, independence, and self understanding.

What Brian enjoys most about his work reflects the heart of Lifeworks:
✨ Building meaningful therapeutic relationships
✨ Working alongside a supportive, passionate team
✨ Watching clients grow, learn, and reach new milestones

Whether he’s guiding families, supporting individuals through therapy, or ensuring the respite program offers a safe and enriching experience, Brian leads with empathy, consistency, and genuine care.
