About Us

About the Owner

Jessica Lorenzo, M.S., BCBA, is the founder and lead behavior analyst at Meraki Behavioral Therapy. With a master’s degree in psychology from Florida International University and a concentration in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), Jessica has held every role within an ABA team since 2017 —from Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) to Assistant Analyst (BCaBA), and now, Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA).

Through her career, she worked hands-on with children and witnessed firsthand both the incredible progress and the limitations of traditional therapy models. Frustrated with rigid, impersonal methods that often relied heavily on tabletop tasks or medication, she envisioned something better—something more human.

In 2020, Jessica founded Meraki Behavioral Therapy to bring that vision to life. Her mission was clear: to offer flexible, compassionate, and results-driven support for children with autism and developmental delays. Driven by integrity, creativity, and a deep commitment to ethical care, Jessica ensures that every client receives thoughtful, consistent, and individualized therapy that truly makes a difference.
