Meet The Team

The Kerry Maisels Behaviour Consulting team is an organization committed to providing the best possible care and support to children and families.

Throughout her career as a manager and clinician at various organizations in the GTA, Kerry witnessed many successes but also barriers to quality clinical services for families. KMBC was founded in 2018 in an effort to help families break through these barriers and to offer a family-centred approach to treatment.

Today, our team consists of multiple specialists in various regions across the GTA and Northern Ontario, who work directly with children. Our commitment to the children and families we serve is unwavering, and we are driven by a shared dedication to making a difference.
