Team

The reward of seeing growth in children, not only through daily tracked data, but also in the excitement of parents when their children use the new skills outside of the T&K environment continues to drive us to improve and innovate programming and the ABA methods employed by therapists.

Our team is composed of highly educated and experienced team members who pride themselves on the fidelity, reliability and validity of their work.
