Meet our talented presenters:


Timothy Folley

Timothy Folley is a BCBA who loves raising his three lively boys together with his wife in beautiful, rural Maine. He earned his Masters in Ed Psych from the University of Southern Maine in 2014. 


Tim’s favorite cases were with children who were diagnosed with autism but presented more like trauma and attachment disorders. Tim himself is no stranger to trauma. He worked through a bout of his own PTSD in 2017 from a behavior analytic perspective. While dealing with his own traumas, Tim dug deep to understand how the process works.


In 2019 Tim began working with the brain injury population. At that point, Tim saw clearly how this population also has deep-rooted trauma and attachment issues. They were able to benefit tremendously from his expertise in this area.


Tim is very excited to share his deep-seated knowledge and experience with other behavior analysts. He will also share the takeaways that he had from his personal encounter with trauma. Tim hopes that you too can gain from using ABA instead of the traditional lense used in the treatment of trauma and attachment.


Kelly Bermingham

Kelly Bermingham has been practicing in the field of ABA for 25 years. She received her BCBA in 2003. She is a published author who specializes in Early Intervention Program development and helping clients with social skills. She partnered with Janis Krempa in writing the book "Social Skills Solutions- A Hands-On Manual for Teaching Social Skills to Children with Autism." which has become a terrific resource for educators, parents and professionals to teach social skills to children with autism. She has completed research and written several blogs for Autism Speaks during her time at UCI.


Kelly has successfully dealt with children and teens on the autistic spectrum both with her clients and in her personal life. She’s passionate about  giving her clients the knowledge and tools necessary to become fully functioning, emotionally healthy individuals. She’s also passionate about sharing her knowledge and expertise with other BCBAs so they too can deal with sensitive topics in the best way possible.


She’s well-versed in the latest research on ASD. She’s professional in her practice, while also being warm, friendly and genuinely caring for the well-being of her clients.


Kelly’s presentation is super-organized with a clear buildup and actual case studies that she’s dealt with on this topic. Kelly is delighted to have you gain from her experience and passion on this delicate, yet vital topic.


Janice Krempa

Janis' introduction to behavior analysis began over 25 years ago in 1994 in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. In 1996, after an invitation from Dr. Ivaar Lovass, she moved to Los Angeles to work at The Lovaas Institute at UCLA.


Relocating to Boston in 1997, Janis earned her Master's degree in Education and a graduate certificate in Applied Behavior Analysis from Penn State in 2003. At that point she began her important work of partnering with families, professionals and school districts across the state of Massachusetts to provide ABA services, conduct program evaluations and run social skills groups for children and young adults. She also consults for schools, conducts curriculums and behavior assessments. Janis develops IEPs as well as transition and vocational training programs and creates community workshops and parent training. 


Partnering with Kelly McKinnon-Bermingham, she co-authored "Social Skills Solutions- A Hands-On Manual for Teaching Social Skills to Children with Autism." It quickly became a "go-to" resource for educators, parents and professionals to teach social skills to children with autism. Janis also contracted with Northwell Health in New York, consulting to an inpatient psychiatric hospital for children and adolescents, and providing weekly supervision for prospective BCBA and BCaBa candidates. Janis feels incredibly fortunate to have had many opportunities to work in the field of ABA across the country and learn from incredibly talented professionals. She’s also been inspired by passionate, dedicated parents and families in her career. She combines her invaluable experiences in her work with staff training, BACB supervision, and program development. She uses her passion to contribute to the field of behavior analysis by advocating awareness of the requisite "soft skills''. This includes effective communication, collaboration skills, and professional development as a foundational building block in achieving excellence in ABA services.


There’s so much that you’ll gain from Janis’s extensive, varied experience in her work as a BCBA.
