The Birch Centre for Learning and Development

This week, we are highlighting one of our Supervised Senior Therapists, Brittany Spina. Brittany is a dedicated Board Certified Behaviour Analyst who brings knowledge, leadership, and creativity to her work with children, families, and clinical teams.

Brittany holds a Master of Education from Ontario Tech University and a Behaviour Analyst Graduate Certificate from Florida Institute of Technology. She has recently completed her R.B.A. (Ont.) designation and is a newly certified BCBA, with 5 years of experience in Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA). She has worked closely with multidisciplinary teams, including Speech-Language Pathologists, Occupational Therapists, and teachers.

Brittany is passionate about supporting both clients and staff, creating positive environments where everyone can succeed.

🥅 Brittany’s goal is to design a skill-building training program to support staff and reduce burnout, while continuing to grow in clinical oversight, program development, and mentorship.

🎶 Fun fact: Brittany grew up with music and taught herself guitar, piano, and ukulele during COVID!

Happy Mother’s Day to all the amazing moms 💐

Happy, Relaxed, Engaged 🤍

When children are HRE, they’re in the best state to learn, grow, and connect.

In ABA, we focus on creating positive, supportive environments where your child feels safe, motivated, and ready to thrive 💬✨

We’re excited to introduce our new Educational Series 📚 We have created this to help families better understand the “why” behind behaviour! We have designed this to make ABA concepts simple, clear, and family-friendly 🙂.
