our leadership team

---

Stephanie is the owner and operator of Expressions Behavioral Healthcare. Stephanie is a Board-Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) who is licensed to provide applied behavior analysis services in both Kansas and Missouri. She received her Bachelor of Arts from the University of Central Missouri in Child and Family Development and a Master of Arts in Special Education with an emphasis in Applied Behavior Analysis from Ball State University. 

Stephanie has worked in the ABA field for over 13 years and has experience working with a wide variety of ages, as well as different needs. She started her ABA career as an RBT where she gained a great deal of knowledge about how to implement and teach different skills and how to follow behavior plans.  During this time, she was able to work in diverse settings which taught her how to adapt her teaching strategies and communication appropriately for each setting. 

Stephanie knew she had found her passion in life by working with individuals on the autism spectrum so after several years of being the direct care implementer she pursued her master’s degree to become a BCBA. After years of commuting into the city, Stephanie pursued her ultimate goal by opening up her own ABA company in 2016, Expressions Behavioral Healthcare, to provide ABA therapy in rural communities that were not being serviced. Three years ago, she met her long-term goal of opening a Center for ABA in Belton, MO, now currently located in Raymore, MO.

Stephanie currently supervises staff and manages cases, trains new RBTs, provides supervision to those pursing their BCBA and BCaBA and also oversees the day to day demands of the office, staff, and clients. 

In her spare time, she enjoys spending time with her family and friends, going to the lake, going on cruises, scrapbooking and cheering on the Kansas City Chiefs! 

Regina is the Medical Office Administrative Assistant for Expressions. Before joining Expressions, she was a front desk receptionist for a fast-paced medical clinic. Regina also worked for a public school district for 15 years as a paraprofessional with five of those years in Special Education. Regina enjoys working in an office setting, but her passion is working with children. She found Expressions allows her to do both of these things. Although she is new to the world of ABA, she is learning and growing each day along with the children we serve.
