    Dr. Jaime Ann DeQuinzio, Ph.D., BCBA-D

    Director of Psychology, Children’s Specialized ABA

    Dr. Jaime Ann DeQuinzio is a passionate leader in the field of autism evaluation and treatment, currently serving as the Director of Psychology at Children’s Specialized ABA in New Jersey. With more than 25 years devoted to supporting individuals and families navigating autism, she believes that an accurate diagnosis is the essential bridge that connects individuals to the right, personalized care—a foundation for meaningful change.

    Dr. DeQuinzio earned her doctorate in Psychology, specializing in Learning Processes and Behavior Analysis, from the Graduate Center of the City University of New York. During her post-doctoral training at the Alpine Learning Group, she cofounded a diagnostic clinic focused on early and precise identification of autism and led their research program resulting in peer-reviewed publications on topics such as generalized imitation, social-referencing, and observational learning in children with autism. She has mentored many aspiring behavior analysts and psychologists. She has taught undergraduate and graduate courses in psychology and applied behavior analysis at Queens College and Caldwell University, and, during her time on the faculty at The Chicago School of Professional Psychology, she served as chair for numerous graduate thesis projects.

    Dr. DeQuinzio is delighted to join the Children’s Specialized ABA team, drawn by the organization’s mission to provide compassionate, family-centered care rooted in the strongest scientific evidence. She shares their values of collaboration and personalized intervention—firmly believing that by empowering families through clear diagnoses and tailored support, children with autism and developmental differences can thrive.
