Summary
I am a dedicated and experienced Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) with over 10 years of success supporting children and teams in educational settings. I specialize in compassionate, evidence-based practices including Skill-Based Treatment (SBT) and the Practical Functional Assessment (PFA) model. My strengths include comprehensive case management, behavior intervention planning (BIP/FBA), treatment plan (POC) writing, and effectively managing caseloads of 8 or more clients. In addition to my foundational skills, I am trained in crisis prevention and intervention, and have successfully implemented Dr. Hanley’s sleep and food toleration protocols. I am passionate about empowering learners and supporting teams through individualized, trauma-informed care that promotes meaningful progress and lasting outcomes.
