With over 20 years of experience supporting children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), Sally Yim is deeply committed to empowering children and their families to thrive. Her mission is to provide evidence-based strategies and compassionate support, fostering growth, independence, and meaningful connections. Sally’s passion for early behavior intervention remains as strong today as it was when she began her career.
Sally is a Board Certified Behaviour Analyst (BCBA) with a Master of Education in Special Education. She earned her Psychology degree and completed her BCBA coursework at the University of British Columbia (UBC), along with a postgraduate diploma in Infant Development and Supported Child Care. She further advanced her education with a Master’s degree from The Education University of Hong Kong, where she co-authored the book Our Journey in 2012.
As the founder of Bridge Kids BC, established in 2015, Sally created a space where children with ASD and their families receive personalized support. Her center offers programs such as one-on-one intervention, social groups, and playdates, guiding children from individualized sessions to group settings where they can develop essential social skills. Under her leadership, Bridge Kids BC has evolved from a small shared space in Richmond to a thriving behavior intervention center, serving families with care and expertise.
Sally’s mission continues to grow as she works to make her knowledge and strategies more accessible to families worldwide. By sharing her expertise through an online ABA course, she hopes to empower parents with practical tools and insights to help their children with ASD thrive. Through education and collaboration, Sally remains dedicated to building brighter futures and stronger connections for children and their families.
