Meet Emily Sapp
Founder of KindMind Pediatric Evaluations

Emily Sapp is a licensed Psychological Associate and Board-Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) with near a decade of experience in child development, mental health, and behavior analysis. She holds a master’s degree in Clinical Psychology from Western Carolina University. Emily specializes in working with children on the autism spectrum, with a focus on supporting their growth, development, and well-being through compassionate, evidence-based care.

With a strong background in child development, crisis intervention, and leadership within the behavioral health field, Emily brings both clinical expertise and a heart for family-centered services. She is deeply committed to creating supportive environments where children can thrive, and she takes pride in tailoring each evaluation and recommendation to the unique needs of the child and family.

Beyond her clinical work, Emily is an active educator, mentor, and published author in the fields of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), trauma-informed care, and child development. She’s a proud member of several professional organizations, including the North Carolina Association for Behavior Analysis (NCABA), the Association for Behavior Analysis International (ABAI), and the North Carolina Psychological Association (NCAPP), reflecting her commitment to collaboration and continued learning.

At her core, Emily believes that meaningful progress happens when families feel supported and empowered. When she’s not working, she’s a dedicated single mom to two kids, a lover of beach days, baking projects, and home decorating, and a pet parent to two dogs and a cat. Her personal experiences enrich her professional approach and inspire her to lead KindMind with empathy, insight, and care.
