Spectrum Studio

As a Board Certified Behavior Analyst, I work in homes with clients and their families, affected by autism and other social disorders, to improve socially significant behaviors and skills while reducing challenging behaviors. I conduct assessments, supervise technicians, and develop programming for behavior support plans. I have worked with clients of various ages from 3-21 years old in both public and private schools on academics, daily living skills, vocational skills, social and play skills, and communication.

In my work, I use Applied Behavior Analysis. So all you BCBA's, behavior technicians, and paraprofessionals may find this store useful for resources. Just some of the teaching methods I use include: discrete trial instruction, natural teaching environment, incidental teaching, behavioral momentum, premack principle, etc. The main goal is to make materials that are engaging and interactive to increase the student's participation. So often, people think ABA and discrete trial is robotic and repetitive. But so much of what we do can be disguised with fun and social learning materials!
