Too often, she’d seen families handed a treatment plan and left to figure out the rest on their own. She’s been a BCBA for eight years, with a focus on early learners and communication-based interventions. She writes about how parents can reinforce progress between sessions, what questions to ask your BCBA, and why the small daily moments often matter more than the structured ones. Priya lives in Maryland with her husband, their toddler, and an aging cat who tolerates them all.
Isaiah’s cousin has autism, and growing up, he watched his aunt fight for every service, every accommodation, every bit of support. He became a BCBA so other families wouldn’t have to fight that hard. He writes about insurance authorizations, school advocacy, and navigating systems designed to make families jump through hoops. His posts are practical, direct, and full of the information parents actually need. Isaiah specializes in working with Maryland Medicaid families.
