For Schools
Challenging behavior disrupts learning, strains staff, and increases risk for exclusionary discipline. Schools without embedded behavior professionals often need targeted, expert support to address these concerns effectively. I partner with schools to design and implement practical, data-driven behavior supports that improve student outcomes while strengthening staff capacity.
Services Offered
School-based behavioral program auditing and consultation provide a structured, evidence-based process for evaluating the quality, compliance, and effectiveness of behavioral services delivered in educational settings. Auditing focuses on reviewing program design, individualized behavior intervention plans, data collection and progress-monitoring practices, staff training, and implementation fidelity, while ensuring alignment with educational regulations, ethical standards, and district policies. Consultation builds on audit findings by offering practical, school-centered recommendations to strengthen collaboration among educators, related service providers, and families, improve instructional consistency, and enhance student outcomes. Together, auditing and consultation support accountability, sustainability, and continuous improvement within school-based behavioral programs, while remaining responsive to the unique demands of classroom and district environments.
Behavioral assessment and individualized behavior planning services include comprehensive classroom and school-based observations to identify behavioral patterns, environmental influences, and instructional variables impacting student behavior. Systematic analysis of challenging behaviors is used to determine underlying causes and maintaining factors. Findings are translated into clear, practical, and individualized behavior support plans that incorporate preventive, instructional, and reinforcement-based strategies. All recommendations are aligned with school values, policies, and existing systems to ensure consistency, feasibility, and effective implementation across settings.
Teacher and staff coaching services offer on-site or virtual coaching cycles designed to strengthen implementation of behavior support practices. Coaching includes direct modeling, constructive feedback, and fidelity support to ensure strategies are applied consistently and effectively. Emphasis is placed on skill-building that empowers educators and staff, promoting confidence, sustainability, and long-term success across classrooms and school settings.
Crisis prevention and behavior de-escalation support focuses on proactive strategies designed to reduce the likelihood of behavioral escalation and promote emotional regulation. Services include clear staff guidance on maintaining safety, consistency, and calm responses during challenging situations, ensuring coordinated, effective support that prioritizes student well-being and a safe learning environment.
