Our Story
Transitions was inspired by a strong passion to provide unique, ethical, and client-led services to populations with developmental disabilities and behavioral disorders. We know the importance and value of autonomy and strive to assist clients and their families to attain self-sufficient and most importantly, fulfilled lives.
TABAS's mission is to provide evidence-based and therapeutic services that build client's confidence and repertoire of skills to go out in the world and live their very best life (while defining what that life looks like for them). We strongly focus on families as a whole by supporting all members of a client's household to ensure a well-rounded approach. At TABAS, we believe in the capabilities of our clients and we strive fulfill the wants, needs and dreams of individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder, Intellectual Disabilities and other related disorders, all through a cohesive-team approach

Lydia has extensive experience supporting and teaching individuals with varying abilities across the lifespan.

Notably, Lydia has presented her Applied Behavior Analysis related research at international conferences. Lydia has also aided in the development of a behavior program for children with diverse needs at a school in Africa, where she trained the school's staff on the core concepts of ABA.

Lydia believes in a natural-based therapeutic approach, making it her mission to provide services in a way that is interactive, engaging, and social. Lydia values happiness, communication, community/household and vocational training as the most essential skills for her clients to obtain and has developed TABAS in hopes to flourish these abilities in her clients. In addition, Lydia serves as an advocate and aspires all of her clients to embrace their individuality and be proud of their unique strengths and differences. Lydia instills this in her compassionate teaching, constant affirmations, and programming for client-led sessions.
