Contextual Behavior Consulting is led by Kate Danforth, a Board Certified Behavior Analyst licensed in Wyoming and Utah.

Kate has worked with children and adults with disabilities since 2018, in classrooms, family homes, and residential programs across three states. Since 2023, her work has centered on the deep end of the field: individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities and co-occurring serious mental illness, in the settings where the stakes are highest. Her current work includes consultation to state-operated psychiatric and long-term care programs at the highest levels of clinical acuity.

That background matters for a simple reason. Families supporting a young adult with complex needs deserve someone who has already seen the most difficult situations and knows how to prevent them. Kate brings that experience into private homes, in service of the vital life a young person and their family are building.

Her practice is grounded in contextual behavioral science, where she has trained directly with the founding generations of the ACT, DNA-V, and PEAK traditions, and in the person-centered conviction that a good life is built on relationships, contribution, and belonging rather than compliance. She is based in Cody, Wyoming, and works with families throughout the region and beyond.
