About Juniper Health and Wellness | Central Texas ABA

---

Young people don’t build confidence by being told what to do; they build it by doing real things in real environments.

At Juniper Health and Wellness, I believe life is built through the things that connect us: relationships, interests, independence, curiosity, and belonging. As a Board Certified Behavior Analyst with a Doctorate in Behavioral Health (BCBA, DBH) and over 17 years of experience in the behavioral health field—offering specialized services to families since 2017—my work is dedicated to helping individuals and families uncover their strengths and build the practical supports needed to move forward.

Real confidence doesn’t come from rote compliance or artificial clinic settings; it comes from functional competence in the real world.

My practice provides specialized in-home and community-based services across Belton, Temple, Killeen, and Bell County, focusing on the crucial after-school hours when growing independence matters most. Grounded in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) and a strict commitment to neurodiversity-affirming care, I move beyond rigid clinic drills to deliver natural-environment teaching right where families live, play, and connect.

Because no two people, families, or paths are alike, I reject cookie-cutter models. I work side-by-side with parents and caregivers who want to see and learn the strategies firsthand, ensuring that progress carries over seamlessly into daily routines. For families who want absolute peace of mind—knowing their learner's experience is safe, high-quality, and deeply individualized—my model puts you right in the loop.

Juniper Health and Wellness is led by Dr. Ashley, a Board Certified Behavior Analyst with a Doctorate in Behavioral Health (BCBA, DBH), a Master's degree in Special Education, and over 17 years of experience in the behavioral health field, providing trusted care to families since 2017.

My clinical approach is rooted in deep expertise, compassion, and an unshakeable belief in neurodiversity-affirming practices. By stepping away from traditional, restrictive clinical models, I built this practice to offer families something better: individualized, transparent, natural-environment teaching that happens right where life is lived.

Every assessment, focused therapy package, and parent coaching opportunity is designed to empower parents, support real-world growth, and help young people build lasting functional confidence.
