Reading my son’s FBA made me very happy. I feel that he is seen and you depicted him very well. You are setting him and his teachers up with ideas that will truly help. I appreciate your expertise in this and I am so grateful for your help!

I have had the pleasure of working alongside Rene for many years. She has keen analytic skills and a strong scientific approach to problem solving. One of her many strengths as a BCBA is her ability to think outside the box to support her clients in navigating life with a greater degree of success and independence. She is one of the most reliable and engaged BCBA’s I have had the honor of working with, She will work diligently and thoughtfully to assist clients in overcoming hurdles with compassion and understanding.

It gives me comfort knowing that you understand as a fellow special needs mom. Thank you for seeing [my daughter] beyond her problematic behaviors and caring for her. It means so much to have another passionate and loving mom assisting; so that she can have better access to addressing her needs and have an opportunity to learn to de-escalate.

Rene has a gift of bringing ABA techniques into the classroom setting while helping teachers understand the ‘why’ of a student’s behaviors. She is also a parent who has seen these techniques work with her own young adult as he tackles the transition to adulthood. She brings the best of both worlds for the students and teachers she helps.

Rene worked with me as a self contained teacher to implement strategies and behavior supports that were centered around what was best for my students. She took the time to gather extensive data, built relationships and rapport with my students, and communicated with me along the process of creating behavior plans. She doesn’t stop helping until there is a solution for the child and family.

Ms. Tilsley brings a wealth of experience as a behavior specialist.  During her time with our district she excelled at supporting our Counseling Enriched Programs (for students with emotional disturbance), Autism Programs, and Independent Living Skills Programs.  Additionally, Ms. Tilsley supported the implementation of PBIS at our school sites and she did this by supporting staff and students individually and by providing training on Tier I and Tier II interventions, De-escalation strategies, Developing and Implementing Behavior Intervention Plans, and so much more.  Ms. Tilsley customized her training for her target audiences which included teachers, principals, playground supervisors, instructional aides and related services staff. Her knowledge, interpersonal skills, and technical skills make her a true leader in her field.

Rene Tilsley goes above and beyond to support staff and students as a BCBA. Her exceptional teamwork and dedication to training teachers ensures a positive and effective learning environment. Rene’s expertise and commitment make a significant impact on the success and well being of everyone she works with.
