It Started with Personal Experience
Co-founder and Clinical Director: Kaitlin Fox, M.Ed., BCBA, LBA
Kaitlin was introduced to ABA when her oldest daughter was diagnosed with autism in 2011. At the time, she was an undergraduate psychology student at San Francisco State University (SFSU). Kaitlin's daughter began ABA therapy with a small, dedicated, and caring team of therapists, who she witnessed transform the life of her child. This personal experience ignited a passion that has turned into 11 years of service in the field of ABA.
In 2013, Kaitlin graduated from SFSU with honors and began her work as a behavior technician. In this role, she supported clients of all ages in home, school, daycare, and community settings. Working as a behavior technician solidified Kaitlin's love for ABA, resulting in her decision to complete a Master's of Education with an emphasis in Applied Behavior Analysis from University of Cincinnati in 2017. After graduating with a 4.0 GPA, she began working as an ABA program supervisor and parent consultant.
During her time in this role, Kaitlin accrued 1,500 fieldwork hours required to sit for the BCBA exam. In 2019, she passed the BCBA board exam on her first attempt. But the most critical part of her journey in ABA was about to begin. In the next years of her work, Kaitlin's focus would shift to addressing the growing need for change in the ABA community.
Kaitlin began to immerse herself in progressive strategies aimed at reducing therapy trauma. She completed Dr. Gregory Hanley's Practical Functional Assessment (PFA) courses for trauma-informed, compassionate care. She then completed continuing education in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Relational Frame Theory. Kaleidoscope Connections, PLLC was founded in 2023, affording her the opportunity to co-found The Gorge Academy through a contract with ESD 112, implementing a novel school-wide program using PFA and ACT as its foundation.
Kaitlin has a passion for teaching effective communication, self-advocacy, and self-care skills to people of all ages and skill levels who enter her care. She hopes to continue making a difference in the field of ABA with her leadership role as co-founder and clinical director of Kaleidoscope Connections, PLLC.
