ABOUT SBBC

Helping Students Reach New Heights!

School-Based Behavior Consultation (SBBC) is dedicated to helping individuals build meaningful skills, increase independence, and improve quality of life through individualized, evidence-based care.

We provide focused and comprehensive Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), Occupational Therapy, and Speech-Language Therapy across center, home, school, and community settings. Our services include individualized ABA treatment, School Readiness programming, home and community-based services, school-based ABA and behavior consultation, Therapeutic Day School services, caregiver education and training, and comprehensive behavior support for adolescents and adults.

At SBBC, collaboration is central to our approach. We partner with individuals, caregivers, educators, and multidisciplinary professionals to identify socially significant needs and develop individualized treatment goals that support meaningful progress across environments.

Our team uses comprehensive assessment, data-driven treatment, and evidence-based practices to teach meaningful skills and address behaviors that interfere with safety, independence, learning, and quality of life. We also partner with schools to support inclusive practices and students' access to a free appropriate public education (FAPE).

Since 2020, SBBC has remained committed to our mission: Helping Students Reach New Heights. Through compassionate, collaborative, and individualized care, we empower those we serve to thrive in the environments that matter most.
