When Bedtime Feels Impossible and Parenting Feels Hard
Helping families navigate sleep, behavior, and parenting with compassion and evidence-based tools.
Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) & Certified Behavioral Sleep Specialist • Columbus, Ohio
You know your child better than anyone, but some days parenting feels impossible.
Bedtime battles that stretch for hours. Meltdowns over seemingly small things. The constant feeling that you should have this figured out by now.
You've tried the books, the blogs, the routines. You've been consistent. But your family's challenges feel bigger than one-size-fits-all advice.
What if there was support designed for your actual life—not the Pinterest version of parenting?
How I Can Help Your Family
-
Sleep Support
Help your family find the rest you deserve with gentle, evidence-based sleep strategies that work for your real life. As a Certified Behavioral Sleep Specialist (CBSS) and BCBA, I support families with children ages 2-12 through sleep challenges, especially when autism, ADHD, or other neurodiverse needs are part of the picture.
Perfect for: Bedtime battles, night wakings, early mornings, nap struggles, and sleep challenges with neurodiverse children.
-
Parent Coaching
Navigate daily parenting challenges with practical strategies that actually work in your busy life. I partner with families to tackle everything from tantrums and routines to sibling conflicts and screen time battles, using evidence-based approaches that honor your family's unique needs and values.
Perfect for: Parents seeking collaborative support for challenging behaviors, daily routines, emotional regulation, and creating calmer family dynamics.
-
Behavioral Services
Comprehensive support for children with autism, ADHD, and developmental differences through direct intervention and family partnership. I provide assessments, individualized treatment plans, school consultation, and focused therapy that builds essential skills while supporting your whole family.
Perfect for: Children needing intensive support, school collaboration, skill development, and families seeking Autism Scholarship services.
An Approach That Actually Fits Your Family
Every family is different, which is why cookie-cutter solutions don't work. I take time to understand your unique situation, your child's personality, and what your family actually needs - not what a book says you should do.
What to Expect:
Collaborative planning that honors your instincts and values
Strategies that work with your real life (not perfect scenarios)
Support when things don't go perfectly - because they won't
Focus on sustainable changes that grow with your family

FAQs
-
I'm one of the only Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBA) in Columbus who is also a Certified Behavioral Sleep Specialist. This unique combination means I can address both sleep challenges and underlying behavioral factors using evidence-based Applied Behavior Analysis techniques, especially for children with autism, ADHD, and other developmental differences.
-
Absolutely! I specialize in supporting both neurotypical and neurodiverse children. My BCBA training and experience with autism spectrum disorders means I understand the unique sleep challenges these children face and can create individualized approaches that traditional sleep training doesn't address.
-
Yes! While I focus on Columbus, Dublin, Westerville, Powell, Delaware, and Central Ohio families, I provide telehealth services nationwide. Virtual consultations are just as effective and allow me to support families anywhere.
-
I work with children ages 2-12 and their families. Most families can schedule their free discovery call within a couple of weeks and their assessment shortly after that.
-
No. My approach is family-centered and respects your values and comfort level. For children with autism or sensory differences, harsh methods can actually be counterproductive. Instead, I use gradual, behavior-based strategies that build positive sleep associations while supporting your child's unique needs.
