Advance Behavior & Learning

Professional expertise.
A personal commitment.

Advance Behavior & Learning is an independently owned and led practice built on the belief that effective support starts with understanding the individual.

We bring together the science of behavior analysis, an understanding of child development, and a close partnership with families to help children learn and grow.

Our work is personal. We take time to understand each child’s strengths, developmental stage, and everyday experiences, along with the priorities of the people who know them best. We consider developmental expectations while recognizing that every child has their own path.

A team built
around your child

Led by Stacy Taylor, EdD, BCBA-D, our team brings experience across homes, schools, and clinical settings. We thoughtfully match team members to each child’s needs and collaborate with parents, teachers, and other professionals to coordinate support.

Our goals extend beyond the therapy session. We focus on skills that help children communicate, participate, build independence, and connect with others in everyday life.

Families are
part of the team

We value what families bring to the process. Your observations, questions, and priorities help shape our work from the beginning. Through ongoing conversation, practical guidance, and shared planning, we work toward progress that matters to your child and your family.
