History and Staff

Meet the Program Director

Jill Revere is a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) who has extensive experience with learners with autism and other developmental disabilities. She has worked in the field for more than 25 years and has had the opportunity to work and learn from many talented and respected behavior analysts and professionals. Her knowledge and experience is reflected in the diversity and uniqueness of the BLS curriculum and in the quality of therapy that her staff provides.

As Program Director of Behavior & Learning Solutions, Jill continuously strives to provide the highest quality ABA program possible based on the principles of Applied Behavior Analysis, using the methodologies of Precision Teaching and Direct Instruction, while incorporating TagTeach, Practical Functional Assessment (PFA), Skill-based Treatment (SBT) for treatment of severe problem behavior, or for teaching “empowerment” and “choice”, and much more!

Jill has had the privilege of learning from many experts in the field. Some of experts she has learned from include: Carl Sundberg, Ph.D., BCBA-D; Steve Ward, M.A., BCBA and Teresa Grimes, M.S. BCBA; Amanda Parker, M.Ed., BCBA; Morningside Academy’s Kris Melroe and Bill Helsel, Ed.D.; Jonathan Amey, M.Ed.; Morten Haughland, Ph.D., BCBA-D; and more recently, Donny Newsome, Ph.D., and Kendra Newsome, PH.D., BCBA-D, LBA.

Jill believes there is always more to learn, and for that reason, she expects the programming at BLS will be forever moving forward as the research continues to expand on effective intervention for learners with autism and other developmental disabilities.

Behavior & Learning Solution’s repertoire of programming and curricula continue to grow.

Behavior analysts

Carissa, Leah, Sam & Andrea

BLS’s Behavior Analysts have extensive training in designing an instructional environment that is individualized to each learner! They have a wide knowledge base, which far exceeds BCBAs employed at other facilities. Working alongside the owner, they use all of their knowledge of behavior analysis, precision teaching, TagTeach, PFA and SBT, and more, to oversee and create individualized behavior plans and programs for each of their clients. They work closely with their Group Leads and Group Floats, and all members on their clients’ teams to ensure a learner-specific and highly-effective ABA therapy.

 

Classroom Leads

Katie, Dani, Holli & Karle

Group Leads all began their careers at BLS working one-to-one with clients and have developed into some of our strongest staff. Each Classroom Lead assists a Behavior Analyst with supervising clients in an assigned group. Leads work very closely with the Behavior Analysts, clients, and staff to ensure that targets get hit frequently, and that training is on-point. Classroom Leads help monitor each client’s sessions, providing focus to sessions, and training one-to-one therapists.

 

Float Therapists

Lexi, Yuli, Natalie & Malorie

Group Floats are therapists who all began their careers at BLS working one-to-one with clients as RBTs, and they also have developed into some of our strongest staff. Each Group Float is available to fill-in for an RBT who has requested off or called off. A Float is trained and familiar with her client’s behavior plans and programming, and is an expert substitute when needed to provide therapy. In addition to providing therapy, the Floats assist a Behavior Analyst with supervising clients in an assigned group. Floats also work very closely with the Behavior Analysts, clients, and staff to ensure that targets get hit frequently, and that training is on-point.

 

one-to-one therapists

BLS therapists are either Registered Behavior Technicians or working towards this certification. Therapists have been intensively trained to deliver the highest quality of therapy. Each of our one-to-one therapists has had the opportunity to work with a variety of clients, and are experienced and enthusiastic about their work. All therapists or technicians are overseen by supervisory staff, including Behavior Analysts, daily throughout the clinic. Regular team meetings, and ongoing supervision ensures the highest quality therapy at all times!

Office StafF

We have a small, dedicated office staff that is experienced, diligent, and friendly.  We are familiar with the preauthorization process involved with securing coverage for ABA services, as well as the struggles and challenges of fighting for coverage and appealing unfavorable coverage decisions.  Our goal is to be sure that things are done correctly and timely and to advocate for clients and their families.
