Before launching Kristen McNeely Consulting & Family Counseling, I practiced as both a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and Behavior Analyst in home and school settings throughout Ventura County, California. While working as a Clinical Supervisor for a local non-public agency, I provided parent education to families with children on the Autism Spectrum and oversaw children’s ABA (Applied Behavior Analysis) programs.
I also worked with several local school districts, providing consultation on behavior supports for students with IEPs and 504 plans. I then transitioned to a position as a Behavior Specialist for a local school district, where I developed Positive Behavior Support Plans and trained staff on implementing evidence-based behavior interventions for students with a variety of needs.
The more time I spent working with children with challenging behaviors, the more apparent Anxiety became as an area of need. Working with parents of anxious children is a passion of mine. I am currently trained in the SPACE treatment, an evidence-based treatment for childhood Anxiety and OCD.
I'm Kristen McNeely
As a mom of three little ones, I know how overwhelming, and oftentimes confusing, behavior management and social-emotional support can feel. My goal is to provide parents with the resources to help them feel empowered in supporting their children behaviorally and socially-emotionally using strategies, evidenced by science and practiced in reality.
I love playing with old film cameras! It's a hobby of mine.

Your fifth must-have would go right about here. Yup, yup.
that you are the best parent for your child and that even the best parents need help sometimes. My clinical approach will give you the tools you need to support your children long-term.
that behavior is nuanced - it is the result of a learning history that includes biology, family systems, culture, and parenting style.
