Hi, I’m Vanessa Benedetti, Clinical Director and Owner of Lifetime Behavioural Services.
I am a Registered Behaviour Analyst (Ont.) with a Master of Applied Disability Studies from Brock University. My professional experience includes supporting children, adolescents, and adults across a variety of settings through individualized, evidence-based Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA) services.
I have experience supporting individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADD/ADHD), developmental and neurodevelopmental disabilities, behavioural challenges, and other learning and support needs. Services are individualized based on each person’s strengths, needs, goals, and circumstances, with a focus on developing practical skills that support meaningful participation in everyday life.
I understand that individuals and families are often managing multiple demands and challenges, and I believe behavioural services should be collaborative, compassionate, and practical. My approach focuses on working closely with individuals, caregivers, and other relevant professionals to develop functional and socially significant goals that can be meaningfully applied across home, school, community, and other relevant environments.
Areas of support may include communication, social interaction, emotional regulation, adaptive and daily living skills, behaviour reduction, independence, and caregiver coaching. Ongoing assessment, data-informed decision-making, and regular monitoring of progress are incorporated to support effective and individualized service delivery.
I am passionate about providing ethical, person-centred, and evidence-based services that support individuals in developing skills that are meaningful to them and their families, while promoting independence, autonomy, and quality of life.
At Lifetime Behavioural Services, our goal is to build skills for today that last a lifetime.
