C.E.O. Vanessa Ashton Kindy, BCBA
Vanessa is not only a behavior analyst, but she is a mom first, one who has experience with her own child suffering from behavioral issues and has seen firsthand what it is like to be a parent receiving services. Vanessa started in the field in 2010 and has worked for the last 10 years in many capacities, across various settings and with large and small companies. She began as a direct technician, trainer, and program writer, and later grew to become a consultant, supervisor, Director, regional Lead Analyst and student liaison with her master’s level Board Certification. In 2016, an opportunity opened up for Vanessa to create her own company, Behavior Blossoms, with the help of her husband. Some of those first families and staff that joined Behavior Blossoms are still with us today. Vanessa consistently strives to develop and improve herself, staff, and the agency, to provide the best services available. She is a believer in compassion, self-care and empathy and strives to develop collaborative relationships with schools, therapists, doctors, agencies and colleges.
