Meet Jerusia

     Jerusia, the founder of Behavior Analysts of Naples. Her love for the Applied Behavior Analysis field began over 25 years ago, when she taught a 4-year-old, who had no verbal communication, to talk. While she loves helping clients, she takes pride in selecting and training the best Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs) to serve our future generations as well; for Jerusia, a hands-on business model is imperative. Not only does she train future therapists, but she also gives direct consultation and regular client assessments.

     While Behavior Analysts of Naples has only been open since 2019, she held a private practice with multiple BCBA’s for over 6 years in Connecticut. After growing tired of the long winters, Jerusia and her husband moved to Naples to continue their business and to enjoy the local golf country clubs. When they aren’t traveling or spending time with their beloved Rottweilers Zoe and Zeus, you can find them playing at the Lely-Mustang Golf Country Club
