About Us
Walden Behavior Solutions, LLC was founded in January 2015 as an effort to meet the growing need in our community for behavior support services. Our clinicians provide applied behavior analytic services to individuals of all ages in several different settings with a variety of behavioral health diagnoses. The goal of our care is to support an increased quality of life for our clients.
Our company name, Walden, comes from Walden Two, a fictional novel written by Burrhus Frederic Skinner (B.F. Skinner) who is largely recognized as the founding father of modern day applied behavior analysis. This science is the basis for all services provided by Walden Behavior Solutions, LLC.
