You would do anything for your children, but far too often they seems out of control. Sometimes you secretly worry that you don't have the right tools to help them grow into stable, healthy and happy adults. You wish you could better understand their intense emotions. Whenever you try to reach them, it turns into the same old fight. It's frustrating to see them continue to act in the same way. You are ready to see the joy return to your child's eyes. You want to feel in control again.

Hi! My name is Jess Hale, and I am a BCBA who provides Applied Behavior Analysis therapy. ABA is effective for teaching children new skills, especially those who are experiencing some type of developmental delay. Such children may struggle to communicate their wants and needs, play appropriately with other children, try new foods, or complete everyday self-care tasks. ABA is also effective at reducing problem behaviors in children, such as aggression, self-injury, property destruction, and excessive tantrums. Whenever possible, I like to use an assent- and play-based approach to keep the experience fun and positive for your child.

If you or your child are experiencing any of these, please know there is an active solution to help with this! My specialty involves "tweens" (ages 10-13) with a clinical focus around ADHD, ODD, trauma, anxiety, depression, and self-esteem.
**AS OF 05/20/2024: CURRENTLY ACCEPTING A FEW NEW CLIENTS** Trying to focus on one task at a time can be challenging and sometimes boring. Emotions then take over and you find ways to release that tension in a negative way. During this time, it can cause conflict between family members, peers, and/or significant others. These negative thoughts/actions are easy to express and obvious strengths are pushed to the side. Having someone who has gone through this personally/professionally can provide active solutions, which can help develop a sense of ease and comfort within the family and individual.
