Practical Support for Sleep, Behavior & Everyday Parenting Challenges
When bedtime, meltdowns, routines, or other challenges leave you feeling stuck, I help you understand what's getting in the way and find strategies that fit your child, your family, and real life.
BCBA & Certified Behavioral Sleep Practitioner | Columbus, OH
You've Tried the Usual Advice. Things Still Feel Stuck.
Maybe your child has difficulty falling or staying asleep. Small changes lead to big reactions. Transitions or everyday routines feel harder than they should.
You've tried strategies that should help, but you're still not sure why the problem keeps happening—or what to do differently.
Sometimes the answer isn't another tip or strategy. It's understanding what's getting in the way.
That's where individualized support can help.
The SEA Approach
At SEA Behavioral Consulting, my work is guided by three principles:
Science-Based
Grounded in behavioral science and evidence-based approaches—not one-size-fits-all advice.
Empathy-Led
Support that considers your child's needs, your family's values, and what feels realistic for you.
Action-Oriented
Clear, practical strategies you can actually use in everyday life.
Specialized Behavioral Support
for Children & Families
-
Sleep Support
For children who have difficulty falling asleep, staying asleep, waking too early, sleeping independently, or navigating bedtime.
We'll look beyond generic sleep advice to understand what's contributing to the problem and develop a plan based on your child's needs and your family's goals.

Parent Coaching
For everyday challenges like meltdowns, transitions, routines, sibling conflict, following directions, independent play, and other behaviors that can make family life harder.
I'll help you understand what's driving the behavior, identify skills your child may need, and develop practical strategies you can use with greater confidence.
