I have been fortunately entrusted with a plethora of roles across my 10 years in the field of ABA. Ranging from a Clinical Supervisor, Senior Level BCBA, Clinical Manager of Assessments, and now current Director of Clinical Operations. I have dedicated and devoted my entire career to become a life long learner to best support the neurodivergent community. As I grow my private practice, it is my desire to change lives one way or another. Every Voice Matters. Every Mind Belongs

Applied Behavior Analysis consists of individualized interventions recommended by the Board Certified Behavior Analyst contingent on assessment results and caregivers primary outcomes from services.

With 10 years in the field of ABA, I’ve supported the autism community through roles like Clinical Supervisor, Senior BCBA, and Director of Clinical Operations. I take a compassionate, neurodiversity-affirming approach that centers each client’s unique strengths and goals. My focus is on collaboration, consent, and care that empowers both individuals and families.

I provide individualized, evidence-based interventions rooted in ABA, with a focus on assent, collaboration, and client-centered care. My goal is to build meaningful skills while respecting each client's voice, needs, and values. I partner closely with families to ensure interventions align with their priorities and promote lasting progress.

I use play-based ABA techniques to create a child-led, engaging, and natural learning environment. This approach encourages exploration and communication while building essential skills through fun, meaningful interactions. By following the child’s interests and cues, I tailor interventions that respect their pace and preferences, promoting motivation and lasting progress.

I provide parent coaching/training to empower caregivers with practical tools and strategies used in ABA therapy. By teaching parents how to implement evidence-based behavioral techniques at home, I help create consistency and support across environments. This collaborative approach ensures parents feel confident and equipped to foster their child’s growth and independence every day.
