Progressive Talent Solutions was founded in 2024 by two women who identified a problem and created a solution.

Having both worked in the ABA field for several years, they saw the challenge of finding the right staff to support ABA clients. Likewise, they saw the frustration of talented and caring staff who felt unappreciated by their employers.  Together, they created a model to make strong and meaningful connections with one goal in mind: getting results for the individual client and their families. This goal is at the forefront of every decision, every partnership, and everything we do!

Founder/CEO

Wendy Belan

20 years ago, I was invited to join a recruiting company as one of 12 members of a “Green Team”. Together we learned everything there is to know about recruiting and dove in head first. I quickly learned that this was what I was always meant to do. I loved the match-making part of the work and found true joy in making the right matches. I progressed quickly to leadership and have had the honor of leading, mentoring, and training new and growing recruiters. In 2017, I found ABA recruiting. Suddenly my passion had meaning. I am committed to helping ABA companies find the right staff to serve and support their amazing clients. I have developed a process that reduces turnover and ensures solid hires. I love what I do and it shows!

From providing direct therapy to managing complex schedules, I’ve developed a deep understanding of the field. For the past six years, I’ve channeled this passion into recruiting, where my mission is to connect talented professionals with positions that truly bring them joy. I believe that finding the right fit isn’t just about filling a role—it’s about ensuring that both the candidate and the organization thrive together. I’m committed to making that perfect match happen, every time, because at the end of the day, that is what brings me joy!
