Behavior science with purpose
Rooted Consultation exists to break the status quo in behavior science—offering bold, strategic solutions for people and systems ready for change. We help behavior scientists, communities, and institutions find hope, reclaim purpose, and build a future where the science finally meets the moment.
We’re not here to play it safe.
We believe in doing work that matters. Work that outlasts us. Work rooted in ethics, driven by purpose, and made stronger through collaboration.
Our Core Values
Legacy Over Trends – We move with purpose. Our work is built to last.
Collaboration Over Ego – No gatekeeping. No one-upmanship. We rise together.
Curiosity Over Convention – We ask better questions, always.
Rooted Ethics – Integrity isn’t optional—it’s our foundation.
Firestarter Energy – We create with boldness, not burnout.
Applied Everywhere – We believe ABA belongs wherever humans behave.
Our mission and Vision
We equip behavior scientists to think critically, lead with purpose, and apply behavioral science to challenges that matter.
Through immersive mentorship, unapologetically bold training, and values-driven community, we’re building a future where collaboration—not ego—drives change, and legacy—not trends—is the goal.
Rooted in ethics.
Built for legacy.
Powered by people.
The Ignis Path
ignite. build. refine. master
The Ignis Path isn’t your average supervision program—and that’s on purpose. We’re here to challenge, inspire, and support you as you grow into the kind of BCBA the world actually needs.
This is a mentorship-based, 1:1 experience rooted in real-world practice—not hypotheticals. You’ll dive into case studies, ethical dilemmas, data analysis, and clinical decision-making that feels relevant, not random. We customize learning to match your career goals—whether you’re leaning clinical, forensic, or still figuring it out.
We believe supervision should feel like a space where you can ask big questions, make bold moves, and learn from honest feedback—without pretending to have it all together. You’ll get structure, support, high expectations, and a safe space to stretch.
You bring the curiosity and commitment. We’ll bring the guidance, grit, and occasional bad joke. Together? We’ll light it up.
Dive deeper. Go further. Make waves.
The Undercurrent is where bold behavior scientists go to specialize, stand out, and shake things up.
We focus on the real-world application of clinical and forensic ABA—think mental health, substance use, intimate partner violence, court-involved behavior, and more. If it’s complex, under-discussed, and desperately needed? We’re diving in.
This isn’t just another CEU club. It’s a launchpad. From job exploration and resume reviews to monthly deep-dive roundtables, The Undercurrent gives you the tools, direction, and confidence to carve your own path—and make a real impact while you’re at it.
THE UNDERCURRENT
Meet the Founder
I’ve spent over two decades in behavior science—working across clinics, psychiatric hospitals, schools, community programs, and alongside justice system professionals. And in all that time, one thing has never changed: the potential of ABA is wildly underused.
I started Rooted Consultation because I was tired of watching brilliant behavior scientists shrink themselves to fit inside one box. This field deserves more. We deserve more.
I’m not building programs. I’m building a legacy—and inviting others to do the same.
