Video from Johana Calvo

I am a Registered Mental Health Family Intern as well as a Board Certified Assistant Behavior Analyst (BCaBA). I have significant experience working with children that present with challenges in social interaction, speech and nonverbal communication, and restricted/repetitive behaviors utilizing Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) treatment therapy. In addition to working with the abovementioned specialized group of children, I also work with with couples, families and individuals navigate presenting relational difficulties such as depression, anxiety, trauma, communication and intimacy to reach their therapeutic goals by collaboratively building up on strengths and setting achievable goals through understanding, compassion utilizing evidence-based practices. My dream is to merge the two fields of ABA and MFT to provide a complete well-rounded treatment process to the families who are affected by Autism Spectrum Disorder and related neurodevelopmental and behavioral disorders.

Soy Interna Familiar de Salud Mental Registrada y también Analista de Conducta Asistente Certificada por la Junta (BCaBA).
