Quality Makes the Difference

“I love watching children and families have breakthroughs…seeing them develop new skills…how our team emphasizes meaningful impact for families. Though people with autism may share certain symptoms, each person, and each family is unique. It is a joy having the opportunity to empower our team to create individualized services that both address and celebrate those qualities.”

– Tammy Frazer, Founder: On Solid Ground Inc.

Throughout her career, Tammy has held clinical leadership and supervisory roles, developed and delivered numerous ABA-based training programs, and provided education, coaching, and consultation to therapists, families, colleges, organizations, and community support networks. Her professional contributions include co-authoring resources in collaboration with Dr. James Partington, contributing to curriculum development for Ontario's college-level Autism and Behavioural Science programs, and teaching at the postsecondary level.

Beyond her clinical work, Tammy has been actively involved in advancing the profession of behaviour analysis in Ontario. Her contributions include participation in provincial professional initiatives and serving on ONTABA's Professional Regulation Committee, supporting efforts toward the formal regulation and recognition of behaviour analysts in Ontario. She is the current and Founding President for Professionals for Behavioural Excellence in Ontario (PBEO) - a non-profit organization committed to the well-being, rights, and outcomes of individuals receiving or delivering behaviour analytic services.
