I have had the pleasure of knowing and working with Dr. Haynes for many years. Rocky is a true professional in every sense of the word. His integrity is impeccable and he strives to provide the highest quality of care possible. I have witnessed Rocky develop and implement learning systems and craft and develop teams in order to carry them out. Rocky truly is an expert trainer in every regard. Most importantly, is the fact that Rocky genuinely cares. He has spent years of his life providing care to the under-served because helping individuals who need it the most mattered to him. I can't recommend highly enough.

Dr. Rocky Dean is someone I have known professionally and personally for a long time. I have never seen someone so passionate about quality care for any client or patient he has worked with. He is professional, caring and kind. He is also a strong advocate which is incredibly important and meaningful to those he works with.

Dr. Haynes cares about the individuals he supports and leads. A compassionate clinician, provider, and leader that truly involves himself in all aspects of the process to do better every day. He does and will continue to make a large impact on the community while providing compassionate and quality services.

Dr. Hayes is one is the most dedicated and caring behavior analysts I know. When he realized that there was a lack of applied behavior analysis services in this area based upon family needs he took action. He has dedicated his career and personal life to see this program come alive. He has a heart of gold and only wants what is best for the clients and their families.

I've known Dr Rocky Dean since 2012-long before he was Dr Rocky. His connection with and compassion for the adolescents we worked with was amazing. It seemed the teenagers were drawn to him and able to open up to him in a way we don't see very often. If I lived in his area and had a family member who needed help he would be my first phone call.

My experience with Dr. Rocky dates back to over 10 years and before he was officially Dr. Rocky. We worked together at Project 12-Ways while in graduate school. I am a social worker and was in awe of the kindness, compassion, knowledge, professionalism, and ethics Dr. Rocky was able to exhibit. For anyone in this field, those qualities are goals not attainable by all. I would trust Dr. Rocky’s expertise for my own. You have a rare find in your community.
