Clinical Team

Erin, M.S. (Applied Behaviour Analysis), BCBA

Manager of Clinical Services/Reg. Behaviour Analyst (Ont.)

One of the best things about working in this field is being part of an empowerment journey for both the clients we serve and their caregivers. To be able to demonstrate the power of Applied Behaviour Analysis to change lives and produce meaningful outcomes is tremendously rewarding! I love seeing a parent or caregivers’ confidence build as they realize they now have a powerful tool to help support their loved one(s) for years to come.

One of my favourite parts of working in this field is assisting individuals and their families to achieve goals that will make a meaningful impact in their day-to-day lives. At Brightside, we strive to empower families with tools and strategies based in Applied Behaviour Analysis that they can use to enhance their lives and the lives of their loved ones. Witnessing the powerful effect that ABA can have on the people we support makes my job extremely rewarding.

My favourite part of working in the field is working collaboratively with families to establish a goal that is meaningful and impactful for them and their child or youth. One of my deepest passions is working with adults, which we have been able to do through Brightside ABA Services. We work with them to determine a goal that is meaningful and impactful.

Keira B.A. (Sociology)

My favourite part of working as an ABA Consultant is watching my clients learn how to self-regulate and communicate their needs. These goals require consistency and commitment from every person in the child’s life; it is a team effort. Knowing I have provided the family with the proper tools to help reach these goals is extremely rewarding and motivates me to provide the best service possible.
