Insight Leadership
Angie Fuqua, CEO, Licensed Behavior Analyst
Angie Fuqua received her education from Western Michigan University with a focus in Applied Behavior Analysis and Organizational Behavior Management. She has dedicated her career to helping others so she could share the insight she gained at WMU regarding the effectiveness of ABA evidence-based practices. Angie has over 20 years of clinical experience across diverse diagnoses, populations and ages. Her expertise in ABA has culminated into her current company and the services she provides, focusing on Autism treatment. She is compassionate about providing quality services and employs individuals that share that same passion.
“My motto is quality over quantity. I want to see people of all ages integrated more in the community. As a result, they are more likely to have a greater independence and meaningful relationships in life! Each person deserves to have their own sense of dignity and it is my ethical obligation to be sure that this is achieved.
In my most recent years of consultation, I have seen many families struggle to navigate the system of obtaining ABA treatment after a new diagnosis. More prevalent now than prior years, caretakers are asking what do I do now if I have an adolescent or grown “child” and never received treatment. The treatment options and road map can be overwhelming and produce yet another source of challenges. ABA Insight may or may not be a good fit for you given individualized circumstances or desires, and that is okay! Our goal for being in business is also to help people find that best fit. If we can be a provider of choice for you, we are honored to be in a place to help you navigate the system. The goal to get you the best quality care possible, that works best for you!
Thank you for considering and potentially trusting in ABA Insight’s treatment team. In any way we can help, we are here for you. We look forward to meeting you soon!”
