A holistic and mindful approach to applied behavior
I started BreathBodyBehavior to provide compassionate, supportive coaching and mentoring to educational environments, teachers, caretakers and children.
Having had worked in the field of behavior analysis and education for nearly seventeen years and practiced yoga for about the same amount of time, I started to see how one practice applied to the other.
True behavior change must be addressed holistically; no longer dealing with only what shows up on the surface for kids and students, but rather understanding and addressing the under currents. Simply put, 'behaviors' are stress responses and teaching acknowledgement, understanding and replacement skills using mindfulness and yoga is my speciality.
Most importantly, it starts with you - the educator, the parent, the babysitter, the grandparent. I'd love to be a support on your journey.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does a session look like?
The short answer is whatever you like!
My career requires versatility. It is not stringent and robotic. I have been lucky enough to create learning opportunities in any situation, from Disney themed sessions in backyard pools to in Fine Art classes and even utilizing Minecraft. Creating changes in behaviors should be enjoyable, collaborative and respectful to the child. I’m not here to just change your child’s behavior. I’m here to partner with you to learn more about your child and your own behavior.
