Quadrant Behaviour Consultation

Hi there! Welcome. My name is Mary and I am Board-Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) who has been working in the field of intellectual disabilities, dual diagnoses, and autism spectrum disorder (ASD) since 1999. I  provide supports to a wide range of clients with a variety of diverse abilities. Presently, my practice focuses on supporting individuals who exhibit severe aggression and self-injury; and working collaboratively as part of a team of multi-disciplinary professionals. I have experience working with individuals in residential settings, in-patient tertiary settings, homes, school and community settings.  I have presented at a number of Behaviour Analytic conferences, and have provided a number of training sessions for caregivers, staff, agencies, and supervisees. I enjoy supporting teams as they develop their skills to better support the individuals they serve and supervising students as they work towards obtaining certification. 

​

As an ACT Matrix Facilitator and Trainer, I work from a point of view that promotes psychological flexibility, and psychological safety. Evolved from ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Training), the ACT Matrix is a visual process that increases psychological flexibility from a Functional Contextual point of view. It addresses behaviour change by examining the relationships between behaviour and the context in which it occurs from the observer self-view and enhancing intrinsic motivation.
