Meet the Team

Meghan McCarty MA, BCBA, COBA, LBA

Associate Clinical Director

Meghan is a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) with nine years of experience in the field of ABA. She began her journey as an RBT in 2017 after working in early childhood and elementary education. A graduate of the University of Cincinnati, Meghan discovered her passion for Applied Behavior Analysis while living in Tennessee. She later earned her master’s degree in Special Education from Arizona State University and became a BCBA in 2020.

Meghan is especially passionate about assent-based practice, Relational Frame Theory, and helping clients build the skills and confidence to advocate for themselves. She believes meaningful progress happens when clients feel heard, respected, and actively involved in their own care.

Outside of work, Meghan is happiest at home with her husband, Erich, their son, Elliot, and their two dogs, Loretta and Jolene. She loves reading, baking, crocheting, and embracing all things cozy and a little spooky. A few of her favorite things? The color green, chocolate, manatees, Mothman, puppies, and anything that gives just the right amount of spooky vibes.

Rhonda McKittrick, RBT

Rhonda began her journey in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) in 2023 and quickly discovered a passion for supporting children and their families. She considers her work in ABA a true calling and values the opportunity to work alongside Guided Practice’s clients, families, and dedicated team members each day.

Rhonda brings a diverse professional background to Guided Practice, with experience as a CNA, Banking Specialist, nanny, and Human Resources Generalist. Each of these roles helped strengthen her compassion, communication skills, and commitment to helping others—qualities she now brings to her work in ABA.

Outside of Guided Practice, Rhonda enjoys spending time with her family and friends. She and her husband, Jeff, have been married for 27 years and have a son, Jeremy. She loves cooking and baking, working in the yard, taking long Jeep rides with her husband, and spending time with her great-nieces and nephews.

Rhonda is excited to continue growing in the field of ABA and is proud to be part of the Guided Practice team. She finds it incredibly rewarding to work alongside a team committed to supporting children, celebrating their progress, and making a meaningful difference for the families we serve.
