Behavior in Waltham

Terri Bright, Ph.D., BCBA-D, CAAB holds Behavior appointments on Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays, and is joined by Jocelyn Strassel, M.S., CVT, whose appointments are held Monday through Thursday. We look forward to helping you.

Due to high demand, appointments are initially booked quite a ways out, but we will work to see you as soon as possible. Most clients are seen within 8-10 weeks of intake form submission.
