Owner/Clinical Director – Marissa Stager M.S., BCBA
Marissa Stager is the Director of Fit Learning Arkansas, and a Board-Certified Behavior Analyst. Marissa earned her Bachelors Degree in Behavioral Sciences from Western Michigan University, at which time she worked in a early learning ABA clinic working with young children diagnosed with developmental disabilities. After gaining her Bachelor’s Degree, Marissa went on to obtain a Master’s Degree in Applied Behavior Analysis continuing to work in intensive clinics, and client’s homes. She was driven by supervising staff, providing support to schools, families, and clients across all ages and diagnoses. She has continuously shown commitment to changing the lives of individuals she comes in contact with by creating a fun and positive environment, creating individualized programming, training of staff, and working with the individuals in the community to ensure their greatest potential and outcomes. Marissa’s passion is providing effective education growth to children who are being left behind by the school systems and their current methods of teaching.
Why I Joined Fit Learning: After observing and hearing first-hand how education systems are not an ideal environment for some learners, Marissa often wondered how she could use her skills in behavior analysis to help. With her background in ABA and hearing about the science and outcomes behind Fit Learning, she jumped head first into training. Marissa is thrilled to bring this model to the state of Arkansas and continue to transforms the lives of many regardless of their age or disability. She is incredibly excited to help build confidence and create a fun environment for learners across all communities of Arkansas.
