Beyond professional and empowering learners

Get to know us !

Behavioral Health Field (AKA: BH Field) was created in Florida, back in 2020. Built to bring smiles! When the COVID-19 quarantine hit us, BH Field's founders moved to Georgia to continue providing families with services for well-being. BH Field opened its doors in Georgia back in 2021. Dana, BH Field's co-founder, is a passionate and very dedicated BCBA who firmly advocates for Compassion over Compliance, Motivation, and Play-based ABA sessions to promote positive social interactions and connections across learners, parents, employees and partners.

BH Field is an ABA therapy provider, grounded in science, that promotes Social-emotional Learning combined with a culture of learning for our practitioners. We believe that interest and motivation encourage shared social interactions and facilitate engagement and growth. We are focused on the social significance of behavior, and equity based on each individual's needs. At BH Field, parents, clients, partners and employees all matter — and the well-being and dignity of the individuals we serve always come first.

I co-founded BH Field to bring smiles and lead with heart. I remind myself to choose appreciation over judgment, because appreciation turns difficulties into opportunities for kindness, connection and growth.

Who we are

Behavioral Health Field

An ABA service provider designed to develop individualized behavioral programs for ASD and IDD individuals — advancing ABA science to benefit society and improve lives, only applying scientifically validated procedures embedded within playful activities.

Value-Based Care

At BH Field, we embrace a Value-Based Care (VBC) philosophy. Our clinical model prioritizes measurable outcomes, quality over quantity, and long-term independence rather than simply the number of therapy hours provided.

We measure success by the meaningful progress our clients and families achieve. Our clinical recommendations are guided by objective data, medical necessity, family collaboration, and evidence-based practices. Through continuous quality improvement, caregiver involvement, and individualized treatment planning, we strive to maximize independence, enhance quality of life, and deliver the right care at the right time.

We continuously evaluate and develop tools that improve clinical decision-making, to ensure that treatment recommendations are objective, individualized, and based on measurable need. Our VBC principles reflect our commitment to clinical excellence, measurable outcomes, accountability, family-centered care, efficiency, and continuous quality improvement.

Compassion-Focused

At BH Field, we believe that exceptional ABA begins with compassion. Every individual is more than a diagnosis, and every family deserves to feel heard, respected, and supported throughout their journey. We don't just change behaviors, we build relationships, empower families, and help individuals to thrive.

Our human-centered approach places the child and family at the heart of every clinical decision. We recognize each learner's unique strengths, preferences, culture, and goals, and we collaborate closely with caregivers to develop meaningful, individualized treatment plans that promote independence, enhance quality of life and adaptive living.

We strive to create emotionally safe, trusting relationships where children can thrive, families feel empowered, and clinicians lead with empathy, dignity, and respect. By combining evidence-based practices with kindness and genuine human connection, we deliver care that is not only clinically effective but also compassionate, ethical, and deeply meaningful.

Play-Based Therapeutic

At BH Field, we believe that children learn best when they are engaged, motivated, and having fun. That's why we incorporate play-based, naturalistic teaching strategies that transform everyday interactions into meaningful learning opportunities. We prefer teaching with joy, so they can learn long-lasting skills.

Rather than relying solely on structured table work, our clinicians embed teaching into play, daily routines, and activities that reflect each child's interests and developmental level. This approach increases motivation, promotes spontaneous communication, strengthens social interactions, and supports the generalization of skills across real-life environments.

Our goal is to make learning enjoyable while maintaining the highest standards of evidence-based ABA science. Through purposeful play, we help children develop meaningful skills that foster independence, confidence, and a lifelong love of learning. At BH Field, play is more than fun — it's one of the most powerful ways children learn, connect, and grow.

People-First Culture

At BH Field, we believe that exceptional care begins with exceptional people. The same compassion, respect, and support we provide to our clients and families are the values we extend to every member of our team, so everyone grows together.

We are committed to creating a workplace where employees feel valued, heard, and empowered to grow both personally and professionally. Through mentorship, recognition, and meaningful collaboration, we invest in the success and well-being of our clinicians because we know that when our team thrives, our clients thrive too. We celebrate achievements while developing confidence and clinical excellence.

Feedback is never about criticism — it is about supporting continuous learning and helping every employee reach their full potential. At BH Field, we foster a culture of trust, flexibility, accountability, and mutual respect. We recognize that our employees are our greatest asset, and we are dedicated to creating an environment where they feel appreciated, supported, and inspired every day.

Ethical Practice

All ABA professionals at BH Field are required to adhere to the Ethics Code for Behavior Analysts issued by the Behavior Analyst Certification Board, and all staff are required to follow our Compliance Program and Code of Conduct.

To be the provider of choice for applied behavior analysis — recognized for programs that maximize learning, build independence, and enhance quality of life, delivered by a compassionate, continuously learning team. We envision a practice in which every patient receives care that is individualized, evidence-based, and socially meaningful; every family is an informed and respected partner in treatment; and every practitioner has the training, supervision, and support to do their best work.

Our Commitment to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion

BH Field is committed to an inclusive and supportive workplace and to equitable access to care. We recruit and hire without regard to race, ethnicity, national origin, religion, age, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, disability, or veteran status; we provide training in cultural humility and responsiveness so that treatment reflects each family's language, culture, and values; we offer interpretation and translated materials where needed; we honor both person-first and identity-first language according to the preference of the individual and family; and we maintain a grievance process through which any employee, patient, or family may raise a concern about discrimination without fear of retaliation.
