Marisol Vega

BCBA-D · LBA — Adolescent & Transition Specialist
Marisol works with teens and young adults preparing for life after school. Her focus is independence — self-advocacy, daily routines, vocational readiness, and the practical skills that help young people move toward the futures they want, on their own terms.
 
She often reminds families that progress in adolescence looks different from early childhood, and writes about honoring a young person’s autonomy while still building meaningful support around them.

Aisha Rahman

BCBA — Communication & AAC Specialist
Aisha helps nonspeaking and minimally speaking children find reliable ways to be understood. She specializes in functional communication and augmentative and alternative communication (AAC), from picture systems to speech-generating devices, always centered on what each child most wants to say.
 
She writes about presuming competence, choosing the right tools without overwhelm, and helping families weave communication practice into ordinary daily moments.
