Co-Founder, Managing Director
Maureen co- founded ABI out of a desire to offer a highly personalized, superior quality treatment program to help each child reach his or her maximum potential. Maureen is a board certified behavior analyst who has specialized in the treatment of children and adolescents with autism and related disorders since 1994. Maureen first began working with children with autism under the supervision of Dr. Bridget Taylor.

In her 20 years in the field, Maureen has conducted initial treatment planning and assessments, designed behaviorally based intervention to teach language, play, socialization, and other essential skills, trained staff, and worked directly with clients. While Maureen’s true love continues to be working with children, her focus over the past 10 years has been dedicated to managing ABI’s operations, including human resources, organizational design, and company development. Maureen’s continuing goal is to uphold a high quality of care by ensuring that ABI runs efficiently and creates an energetic and innovative workplace for its employees.

Our company is only as good as its staff members. When starting ABI, I wanted to ensure that our staff members received the highest level of training and supervision so that our kids get the most benefit out of every minute of service. Marla and I didn’t want to be a huge company serving hundreds of clients in numerous locations. Our goal was simple: keep it small and maintain the highest level of quality as possible.
