A grounded, compassionate approach to behavior, regulation, and meaningful change.

30+ years of experience helping families understand the behavior everyone else is reacting to.

You’re not doing it wrong.
Most parenting advice fails because dysregulation cannot be solved with a sticker chart.

Hi, I’m Sabrina. Board Certified Behavior Analyst, Embodied Behavior Specialist, Mom, Salsa Dancer, and Generational Cycle Breaker ❤️‍🩹.

Your student or child is not misbehaving. Their behavior is a reflection of the state of their nervous system— as is yours.

I work with teachers and parents who are done guessing what to do when things escalate, deeply-caring adults who are responding to behavior from frustration, urgency, and overwhelm.

I know exactly what it’s like —rushing, raising my voice, feeling so much shame, and then doing it all over again when tensions flared.

I was stuck in cycles of shame and overwhelm, not because I didn’t care, but because I didn’t yet understand what was actually happening.

If your child engages in big reactions to small changes, aggression, impulsive behavior, or shutdown and withdrawal, their nervous system is likely in a near-continuous state of stress or activation.

And when you’ve been sharing space with a child with big behavior, your nervous system is often right there too—chronically activated, always “on.”

That might feel like a lot. Because it is.

What I offer:
🧠 Behavioral Science

Evidence-based assessment and behavior analysis to identify why challenging behavior is occurring.

🤍 Nervous System Awareness

Understanding how stress, safety, and regulation shape behavior—for both parent and child

🗺️ Personalized Roadmap

Clear, practical strategies your family can begin using immediately
