Why Deep Blue Behavior Therapy?
Because every wave begins deep below, long before it rises and shines under the sun. At Deep Blue Behavior Therapy, we believe a child’s growth is just like that, powerful, beautiful, and often starting in places that can’t be seen right away.
Our work is guided by the belief that every child has incredible potential waiting to unfold. Through the science of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) and the heart of compassionate care, we help children build the foundation they need to communicate, connect, and thrive.
Our Story
Deep Blue was born from a simple but powerful vision: to create a place where therapy feels warm, human, and deeply meaningful. A place where families feel seen, supported, and encouraged every step of the way.
Our founder, Luisa Harman-Baez, is not only a Board Certified Behavior Analyst with over 17 years of experience in the field of ABA, but also a proud mother of two. Her perspective as both a professional and a parent shapes everything she does. She understands the hopes, fears, and love that parents carry, and she believes that every child deserves to be treated with the same care and compassion she would give her own.
Through years of working alongside children and families, Luisa has witnessed the courage it takes to keep going when progress feels slow. She realized that real change happens when we look deeper—when we understand the “why” behind a behavior and nurture growth with patience, trust, and love.
That’s how Deep Blue Behavior Therapy began: with a commitment to look beneath the surface, to meet every child where they are, and to help them rise.
What We Do
We provide individualized ABA therapy for children ages 1–8, focusing on early intervention skills that support independence, communication, and confidence.
Our approach includes:
🌊 Early Intervention Therapy: Gentle, play-based learning rooted in the science of ABA, designed to strengthen foundational skills and make learning joyful.
🌿 Parent Coaching: We guide parents with practical tools and help their child’s growth continue beyond each session.
🤝 Professional Collaboration: We believe in the power of a team-working closely with teachers, therapists, and caregivers to ensure consistent, whole-child progress.
Our Beliefs
At Deep Blue, we don’t just teach new skills, we help children discover their strengths, and we help families find hope.
We believe:
Every child deserves to be understood, not just supported.
Every family deserves guidance that feels personal, not clinical.
Every small moment of progress is worth celebrating.
Because when we look deeper, we see the potential that was there all along, waiting to rise, like a wave finding its way to the shore.
Our Mission
Our mission is to help children and families grow from the inside out—through kindness, science, and connection. We believe that meaningful progress happens when compassion meets consistency, and that every child’s journey deserves to be celebrated.
At Deep Blue, we meet families where they are, guide them with care, and walk beside them as they rise toward their full potential
