Executive Director

Brynna Ledford is a Board Certified Behavior Analyst with over 15 years of experience supporting children and teens in building meaningful, lifelong skills. She specializes in utilizing naturalistic forms of behavioral intervention including the Early Start Denver Model (ESDM) and Pivotal Response Treatment (PRT). Her specialties also include theory of mind development, verbal behavior for early intervention, and executive functioning. Brynna brings expertise in working with individuals with ADHD, autism, and OCD, using evidence-based, individualized approaches that are both engaging and effective.

Guided by a collaborative, family-centered philosophy, Brynna started Joyscape in 2019, in order to better serve families looking for a highly specialized, naturalistic approach. Joyscape was created as a clinical space that blends compassion, creativity, and data-driven strategies to help each client develop confidence, independence, and the tools they need to thrive.

Brynna has been a continuing education provider for over 10 years. In addition to leading trainings for Joyscape, she has led trainings of all sizes for speech therapy companies, parents, schools and daycares, and other care providers.

In her free time, Brynna enjoys hiking with her wife and dog, making ceramics on the pottery wheel, and gardening. She is also an enthusiastic swing dancer — you may even find her teaching her clients a move or two!
