Culturally competent, evidence-based Applied Behavior Analysis services for deaf and hard of hearing individuals — delivered with fluency in American Sign Language and deep understanding of Deaf culture.
At DEAFinitely Able, LLC, we are committed to making a positive impact in the lives of adults and children who are deaf or hard of hearing. We specialize in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) and use American Sign Language (ASL) as a fundamental means of communication — because true progress requires true connection.
Our dedicated team is driven by the belief that every person deserves the opportunity to thrive, and we work tirelessly to ensure our services make a positive and lasting impact on the lives of those we serve.
Kimberly completed her BCBA program at Capella University and brings over 15 years of experience providing mental health and behavioral services to deaf and hard of hearing individuals of all ages — including adults, teens, and children — with dual diagnoses. Her personal experience with bilateral hearing loss — wearing hearing aids since age 3 — gives her an unmatched understanding of the deaf and hard of hearing community.
