We are a team of committed and caring behavioral health care professionals. Our team includes a licensed psychologist, board certified behavior analysts, behavior interventionists, trainees, and administrative professionals.
Our licensed psychologist is Dr. Michele Ocen. Dr. Ocen was raised in Ontario, CA and is a licensed psychologist and Board-Certified Behavior Analyst. She received her Ph.D. in counseling psychology from Tennessee State University and completed her APA-accredited pre-doctoral internship at the University of Nebraska Medical Center, Center for Autism and Developmental Disabilities and postdoctoral fellowship at Children’s Medical Center, Dallas. During her training, she obtained expertise in diagnostic assessments for autism spectrum disorder, behavioral intervention and applied behavior analysis, parent consultation, and early intervention. She is also certified in the Early Start Denver Model and is research reliable in the administration and scoring the Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule-2nd Edition.
Dr. Ocen has been providing clinical services to children and families impacted by autism for over 10 years in multiple capacities. She has been a one-on-one behavior technician, lead behavior technician, ABA supervisor, therapist, and diagnostician. She is passionate about helping children and adolescents thrive and loves to help them meet their goals.
Keystone Pediatric Behavioral Health is proud to have highly skilled, dedicated, and compassionate Board-Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBA) on the team. As BCBA’s, our clinicians provide functional behavioral assessments to assess behaviors and develop intervention plans that seek to reduce behaviors that interfere with learning and functioning and increase and improve socially significant behaviors. Goals for treatment seek to help each child develop optimally for communication, social, independent living, and behavioral goals. They train and supervise our behavior interventionists to implement treatment plans and collaborate with parents to help them meet their family treatment needs.
Under the close supervision and guidance of our BCBAs, our committed behavior interventionists work one-on-one directly with children and adolescents to implement their unique treatment plans. They receive initial and ongoing training in ABA strategies and ongoing feedback regarding their cases from case BCBA’s and supervisors.
Keystone Pediatric Behavioral Health serves as a training site for individuals seeking experience in working with individuals with neurodiverse presentations. Trainees include, but are not limited to, individuals studying psychology, applied behavior analysis, social work, and early childhood education as part of their academic or post-graduate experience.
