Get to Know Me
About Me
Hi, I’m Christopher Robinson, a Board Certified Behavior Analyst and Licensed Behavior Analyst with more than 15 years of experience supporting children, families, educators, and schools.
My career began in the classroom as a special education teacher. I loved teaching, but I found myself especially drawn to understanding behavior,: figuring out why a student was struggling, identifying what was getting in the way of success, and finding creative ways to shape new skills and help students become more independent. That interest ultimately led me to pursue certification as a behavior analyst and build a career centered around applied behavior analysis.
Since then, my work has taken me across home, school, and community settings. I’ve provided direct behavioral services to children and adolescents, coached parents and caregivers, consulted with teachers and school teams, conducted behavioral assessments, developed individualized treatment and behavior support plans, and trained professionals on the practical application of ABA.
A significant part of my work has been in public schools, where I collaborate with teachers, paraprofessionals, related-service providers, child study teams, administrators, and families. I enjoy helping teams take behavioral principles and turn them into strategies that are realistic, sustainable, and meaningful in everyday classrooms.
I’m also an adjunct professor teaching graduate-level coursework in applied behavior analysis. Teaching future behavior analysts has become another important part of my professional life and keeps me connected to the research, ethics, and evolving practices within the field.
My Approach
When you work with me, you’re not getting a big agency, you’re getting me.
I maintain a small caseload because I value being directly involved in the services I provide. My approach is collaborative, practical, and individualized. Rather than applying the same model to every child or family, I focus on understanding what is meaningful to the individual and identifying skills that can make a genuine difference in everyday life.
That may mean improving functional communication, increasing independence with daily routines, developing social or executive functioning skills, building flexibility, reducing challenging behavior, or helping a child participate more successfully at home, at school, and in the community.
I also believe that effective behavioral support should fit into real life. I work closely with families and other professionals whenever possible so that the skills we build during our time together carry over to the people, places, and activities that matter most.
Beyond Behavior Analysis
Outside of my work as a behavior analyst and educator, creativity has always been an important part of who I am. I’m an actor and have a strong interest in film, television, and theater. I enjoy traveling, spending time near the water, staying active, and getting outdoors whenever I can, usually with my dog not too far behind.
Those interests may seem separate from behavior analysis, but I think they influence the way I work. I value creativity, curiosity, humor, and connection, and I believe children and families benefit when behavioral services feel human, engaging, and relevant to their lives.
At the center of all of my work is a simple goal: helping people build skills that create greater independence, participation, and quality of life.
