Meet the Founder

Meet Blair Polhemus, BCBA-LBA

Hi, I'm Blair Polhemus, BCBA & Founder of Brighter Futures ABA. With years of experience supporting children across homes, schools, and community settings, I created Brighter Futures ABA to provide compassionate, individualized care that truly meets families where they are. As both a Board Certified Behavior Analyst and former public school behavior specialist, I've worked with children with autism and behavioral needs across a wide range of areas- including communication, emotional regulation, daily living skills, social development, and challenging behavior. I founded Brighter Futures ABA because I saw the need for services that feel personal, collaborative, and functional for real life- not "one size fits all". My goal is to help children build meaningful skills while also supporting parents, caregivers, and educators every step of the way. I'm so glad you're here, and I look forward to connecting with your family.
