Raelynn Nelson MS, RBT

I have been working in the field of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) for over eight years. My journey began in high school through a LINKS program, where I had the opportunity to mentor peers on the autism spectrum. That experience sparked a deep interest in supporting individuals in meaningful ways. A few years later, I was formally introduced to ABA by a friend, and I quickly developed a strong passion for the field.Driven by this passion, I went on to earn my Master’s degree in Psychology with the goal of becoming a behavior analyst. Throughout my career, I have remained committed to empowering the individuals I serve—helping them navigate life’s challenges, discover their interests, and build skills that support a fulfilling and meaningful life.

I have a lifetime of experience working with individuals on the autism spectrum, which has shaped my ability to communicate effectively, remain compassionate, and provide meaningful support in diverse situations. In addition to my work in education, I have experience as an EMT, where I developed critical thinking skills, the ability to remain calm under pressure, and a strong commitment to helping others. My background reflects a passion for service, a deep understanding of individual needs, and a commitment to making a positive impact in my community.
