Mission Statement
MyBT is dedicated to making a positive impact in the lives of individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) and those facing language development challenges. Our goal is to provide easily accessible, expert-level, systematic language instruction that fosters improved communication skills and enhances independence in daily life.
Founder’s Message:
As a seasoned clinician and Behavior Analyst, I have dedicated my career to helping individuals with special needs. Throughout my journey, I have experienced the profound rewards of teaching and learning, like witnessing someone’s first words, as well as the daily obstacles and challenges that come our way. However, during my work in ABA clinics outside of the USA, I often encountered frustrating barriers, ranging from limited resources to constraints in time, location, and finances.
We knew that by reducing the intensive time requirement for table-based discrete-trial teaching, and replicating it with a technology-based solution, we could tackle the same language-learning objectives, devote more of our therapy hours to teaching in the natural environment, and drastically reduce the cost of an effective, comprehensive ABA treatment program.
We hope that MyBT will increase access to ABA-based teaching methods all over the world, and help people along their language-learning journey towards enjoying a rich and vibrant interactive life with friends and family.
