About Us
Our Clinical Director, Roya Mayer, MA, BCBA, has been working with people (mostly children) with disabilities since 2004. She left a successful career in 2002, to make a difference in the world helping children. She received her Master of Art in Psychology with an emphasis in Marriage Family Therapy (MFT) from Phillips Graduate Institute, in 2005. Her pre-grad internship was at The Early Childhood Parenting Center (an offspring of Cedar-Sinai parenting group) where she gained hand-on experience in Attachment Theory working with infants and toddlers and their mothers under the supervision of a team of MFT and MSW professionals.
In her first job as a case supervisor, working with children with developmental delays she was introduced to the field of ABA and took her coursework at National University. Through the years of work in this field, she has worked with nearly 1,000 children with various diagnoses from Developmental Delays (i.e. Autism, Asperger, PDD, Down Syndrome, Seizure Disorder, Cerebral Palsy, etc.) and Emotional Disturbances (ADHD, Bipolar, Anxiety Disorder, etc.)
She has been highly successful in reducing inappropriate behaviors from severe to mild such as aggressive, self-injurious, tantrum and self-stimulatory or stereotypy behaviors, as well as replacing them with functional and alternative behaviors.
