My name is Dr. Alena Barosa, and I am originally from Siberia, Russia. Fayetteville, NC, has been my home since 2008. I am a resident of Haymount, a single mom to a lovely citizen, and an owner of well-trained cats, a dog, and chickens. I received my PhD in behavior analysis in 2024 (my dissertation was on the inclusion of neurotypical siblings in the autism journeys). Prior to my career that began in 2014, I worked as a community liaison at the Collaborative Institute for Interprofessional Education and Practice (housed at Fayetteville State University), volunteered as guardian ad litem with abused and neglected children, and as a disaster action team member at the Red Cross, assisted with Parents as Teachers Safe-Care research (lead by the Georgia State University), and worked as a childcare provider at Pope Air Force Base. I have been a BCBA since 2016 and a QBA since 2020. Over the years of serving the neurodiverse community, I have been honored to work with countless inspiring families. My passion is to educate the community about neurodiversity, find ways to celebrate diversity and help families advocate for the needs of the unique needs of their neurodiverse children, teens, and adults. I started Barosa Learning Lab, LLC on the foundations of social justice, inclusion, and neurodiversity-affirming values. My role is not to make neurodiverse individuals "normal "or "indistinguishable" from the general population but rather to make the world more accepting and kind. Neurotypical folks have just as much to learn from those seeing the world in unique ways.
We offer a wide range of high-quality services that are designed to meet the needs of our community:
- IEP advocacy and classroom supports
- Caregiver support and sibling inclusion workshops
- Community presentations
- First responders and community stakeholder training

There are no excuses for neglecting a child's voice. Many individuals on the autism spectrum experience challenges with expressive language. This video discusses alternatives to spoken language.
