I am an experienced and compassionate behavior therapist with over 30 years of experience helping children with special needs. My expertise includes Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), verbal behavior, and Relationship Development Intervention (RDI). I have worked extensively with autistic children and those with other developmental disabilities to promote communication, social, play, self-help, and behavioral skills. My top priorities are understanding each child's unique challenges and creating customized therapies to meet their individual needs. I develop deep connections with my clients and collaborate closely with parents and other providers. I have excellent references who can speak to my caring approach and proven success helping children reach their full potential. With three decades of experience, I have the knowledge and intuition to help vour child thrive. Please contact me to learn more about my personalized, play-based ABA therapy services and how I can help your child.

    Nan has been the best teacher our son A. has ever had. He's got moderate autism and she strikes just the right balance between great curriculum and a firm hand to keep him focused. She has great educational insights and tailored a lesson plan to fit his needs and abilities. We're really happy we found her!
