Hi! I am Emilea Warrington (pronounced Emily). I have been in the field of ABA for 20 years. I started out as a parent when my youngest son was diagnosed with Autism when he was 3. I was the protective mom and interrupted sessions with “We don’t do it that way” or “That is going to make him mad”. It took some time before I was able to let go and buy in. I am so thankful I did. The impact ABA had on my son and my family was nothing short of life changing. I knew what I wanted to be when I grew up and I absolutely had to give this back to other families. I empathize with the families I have the pleasure of working with.

I worked my way through my undergrad and graduate degrees while working full time, raising 3 children with an active duty spouse. I was a para educator in a special education program and an RBT for 10 years. My family moved from Washington to Roswell, New Mexico where Autism and ABA awareness was unheard of. I started an Autism parent support group, sat on the board of the New Mexico Autism Society, brought the first ABA services into Roswell, and worked for the local school district to start an Autism program within the district. I moved back to Washington and continued my journey and I became a BCBA in 2017. In 2022 I moved to Omaha and I have been proud to be a part of the local autism community since my arrival. I have worked as a BCBA, Clinical manager, Director of Clinical Training, and now a Treatment Director at Inner Circle Autism Network – Millard. My passion is working with the children and their families to enhance independence and teaching families how to teach their children the way they learn. I am also extremely passionate about building up our field by mentoring young BCBA’s and BCBA students. My goal is to leave the field of ABA better than how I found it.
