About Trusty Behavioral

History

Trusty Behavioral Services was established in 2014 by Clint Trusty with a mission to transform the lives of individuals with developmental disabilities using ABA.  At that time, there were very limited ABA providers in Georgia, especially few with expertise to serve individuals beyond elementary age.  The organizations initial focus was to provide high quality care for that underserved population by helping them gain independence and experience a rewarding life.  However, as people of all ages contacted us in need of our services, we expanded our team and expertise to serve a wider age-range of people.  Today our team includes highly-experienced Behavior Analysts (BCBAs) and ABA Technicians (RBTs) delivering services in a range of settings. 

Our aim is to provide people with intellectual and developmental disabilities in Georgia with the treatment they need to that produce life-altering results.

Clint Trusty

CEO & Founder

Clint was born and raised in the state of Tennessee where he earned his bachelor’s degree in psychology from The University of Tennessee. Thereafter he began working with adolescents with behavioral problems and developmental disabilities. His first introduction to behavior analysis involved an unplanned encounter with a Behavior Analyst on a shared case that opened his eyes to the life-changing potential ABA can have when properly deployed. This experience led him to obtain his Master’s degree from Auburn University and his BCBA certification in 2008.

Clint worked in state government in Georgia’s developmental disability agency (DBHDD) serving as the Senior Behavior Analyst and Director of Behavior Services. His experiences have included work on both the systems and individual level in settings to include private homes, group homes, schools, residential facilities, day treatment facilities, and hospitals. In 2014, he founded Trusty Behavioral Services. Clint has and continues to be active in promoting the field of ABA through his involvement in state and national organizations. He currently serves on the Board of Directors for the Association of Professional Behavior Analysts (APBA) which he has done since 2018. He is a current member and past president of the Georgia Association for Behavior Analysis (GABA). When not working, he enjoys spending time with his family, watching sports, and being active.
