Personal experience navigating learning disabilities and ADHD has shaped a deep, compassionate understanding of education and the real-world challenges individuals with disabilities face. This perspective informs a belief that support should begin early—often before a child enters the school system—using behavior analytic services to build foundational skills that support individuals with autism across home, school, and community settings. By focusing on communication, self-regulation, independence, and social engagement, these services help individuals successfully navigate home life and transition into learning environments. This helps individuals participate more fully in their daily lives. Early, intentional support can make this journey more positive, effective, and sustainable from the very start.
As a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA), Ms. Allen is trained at the graduate level to assess behavior and develop individualized, evidence-based interventions that support meaningful skill development. Her work includes conducting behavior assessments, designing and monitoring treatment plans, and partnering with caregivers and teams to promote success at home, in school, and in the community.
Ms. Allen provides in-home and in-school behavior analytic services for children with autism that are individualized, evidence-based, and grounded in everyday routines. By working within the home and community, she focuses on building functional skills such as communication, independence, and positive behavior while supporting caregivers with practical strategies they can use consistently. This approach allows therapy to be meaningful, effective, and naturally integrated into family life. Behavior analytic services support a smooth transition from home to school by building the foundational skills children need to successfully engage in structured learning environments.
Ms. Allen brings over a decade of experience working in life skills classrooms and separate public day school settings. Roles have included Special Education Teacher, Extended School Year Teacher, Compensatory Services Teacher , Behavior Intervention Team, and Interim Team Lead.

Services are designed in close partnership with families, using data-driven strategies and advocating for research-based interventions that support each child’s unique strengths and needs. A strong emphasis is placed on early behavior analytic therapy to build foundational skills within the home environment. By focusing on communication, self-regulation, daily routines, and positive family interactions, support helps families navigate challenges, create a more balanced home life, and prepare their child for success in school. This collaborative approach empowers families, promotes meaningful, measurable progress, and supports long-term success across home, school, and community settings
