As a BCBA I conduct functional assessments and analyses, develop behavioral strategies to teach appropriate behavior, and reduce maladaptive behaviors. Develop behavior plans/treatment plans for clients for reducing problematic behaviors. I provide ongoing support and training to direct support professionals (RBTs, BT) and families. Meet with supervised staff to discuss ongoing clients' issues and provide support as needed. I review treatment plans to ensure that they are clinically appropriate and cost-effective. I also monitor the progress of clients' treatment plans and make adjustments as needed to ensure that they are meeting their goals. By doing so, I can ensure that clients receive the best possible care and that their treatment is efficient and effective. Additionally, I have experience in maintaining accurate and detailed documentation of clients' progress and treatment plans, which is essential for ensuring quality care and meeting regulatory requirements.

I have utilized a number of scientifically-based methodologies such as Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) and Verbal Behavior in the development of Behavior Intervention Plans for Early Intervention patients. By tracking each individual's progress with graphs and data collection, I can assess the effectiveness of interventions and make any necessary modifications to treatment plans. In addition to developing and implementing behavior intervention plans to treat problem behaviors, including SIB such as biting, scratching, pulling hair, and food refusal behavior, I provide parent and professional training in the application of behavior analysis practices. This includes presenting workshops for professionals on topics such as proactive strategies to address challenging behavior, ABA, and data collection. By sharing this knowledge, I can ensure that parents and professionals have the tools they need to effectively support the individuals they serve. I reviewed and evaluated the effectiveness of treatment plans to ensure that they are meeting the needs of patients and their families. This involved conducting ongoing assessments and utilizing data analysis to monitor progress and make any necessary adjustments to treatment plans. Show less
