The Role of Applied Behavioral Analysis in Autism

Melissa and Kristin discuss her work in the field of Autism and how the field of Applied Behavioral Analysis has expanded over the years.

Melissa Hunsinger-Harris, MSEd, BCBA® provided ABA services in both regular and special education institutions before joining Bay Path University. Melissa’s clinical expertise includes an emphasis on intensive early behavioral intervention (EIBI) as well as professional development opportunities for organizations that provide intensive behavior supports. At Bay Path, Melissa is a full-time instructor in the ABA program and provides supervision to graduate students seeking certification. Her belief is that the basic principles of behavior analysis can be taught to every parent/caregiver within in-home therapy sessions, reducing the need for intensive services & empowering parents/caregivers.
