Kellie VanAssche
Kellie is a BCBA with 9 years of experience in the ABA field. Kellie is part of our corporate team and works with our BCBAs to ensure that our quality is up to perfect standard.
She began working as an RBT in 2014 in her home state of Michigan. She fell in love with the field and went on to graduate school while continuing to work as an RBT.
She gained experience working with all ages and had the chance to implement feeding therapy with a few of her clients.
Once she obtained her Masters degree, she began working as a QBHP and handled a caseload of her own, gaining experience as a clinical practitioner. In April 2022, she joined the Golden Steps ABA team as she found a love for training and supporting other BCBAs in the field.
