About Jay

I'm a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (M.Ed, BCBA) with a simple belief: every child has the ability to grow when they're truly understood.
 
Since 2022, I've worked with children, adolescents, and teens across home, school, and community settings — helping families move from overwhelmed to equipped.
 
My experience includes supporting teens in alternative education programs, serving as a clinical supervisor in a center-based setting, and providing direct therapy in home environments.
 
Whether your child is struggling with communication, challenging behaviors, or daily independence, I build a plan around them — not a generic program.
 
At Upside ABA, you won't be handed off to a technician.
You get me, every session.

My Mission

To create meaningful, lasting change — one family at a time. High-quality care means showing up fully, planning thoughtfully, and never losing sight of what matters most: your child's real life.

My Philosophy

I believe every child can grow when learning happens in the right environment, with the right support. My approach is built on understanding your child's unique strengths, challenges, and ways of experiencing the world — then meeting them exactly where they are.

Why a solo BCBA?

At most ABA companies, a BCBA designs the plan — then hands it off to a technician. At Upside ABA, I do both. That means faster adjustments, deeper relationships, and a clinician who truly knows your child.
