Meet Our Leadership Team

Amanda is the Clinical Director at APEX Pediatric Therapy Services in Palatine. She began her journey in ABA in 2018 as a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT), working in a therapeutic day school where she developed a strong foundation in supporting children with diverse needs. She earned both her undergraduate and master’s degrees from National Louis University. She completed her Master’s in September 2023, and became a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) in January 2024.

She chose to pursue a career in ABA because she saw firsthand the meaningful impact it can have on a child’s quality of life. She truly enjoys helping children build important life skills and love partnering closely with families to support their child’s growth in a way that feels both meaningful and lasting.

Erin is a BCBA and Clinic Director with 9 years of experience in the field, including 5 years as a BCBA. Her passion is figuring out how each child learns best and helping families adjust their approach in ways that actually work for their day-to-day lives. Her work is grounded in the Happy, Relaxed, and Engaged (HRE) Model, with a strong focus on building independence, even when progress isn’t perfectly linear.

Outside of work, Erin enjoys spending time with her family, especially at the beach in summer. When she has a free moment, she also enjoys reading and yoga.

Angie is the Clinical Director at APEX Pediatric Therapy Services in Gurnee. She has been supporting neurodivergent children and their families since 2010 and began her work in the field of ABA in 2018. Angie earned her Master’s degree in ABA, along with a Masters certificate in Autism Spectrum Disorder, in 2020 and became a BCBA in 2021.

Angie’s passion stems from the meaningful, everyday progress she gets to witness, both in her clients and their families. She’s committed to individualized, compassionate care that meets each child where they are. Her clinical approach is grounded in ABA principles while prioritizing natural teaching, and a regulation-first mindset with the goal of supporting long-term independence and quality of life.

Outside of work, Angie enjoys spending time with her family, including her new baby, rewatching her favorite TV shows, and getting creative with crafts and DIY projects.
