“I know some of my students would not have found the success in the general education setting they were able to achieve without the support and guidance of School Based Behavior Consultation. Prior to partnering with SBBC, one of my students spent the majority of his day outside of the general education classroom, often refusing to go to class. He would escalate when he would enter the classroom in order to escape. After working with Kristie and her team, the same student has been able to remain in the general education setting with support of a RBT and is achieving more in his educational career than ever before. Beyond direct support, Kristie and her team are always available for knowledgeable advice and tips. I know I am a better educator due to working with SBBC.”

“I really LOVED having SBBC come into my classroom. At first, I was nervous about having extra or "too many" people in my classroom, but they jumped right in and definitely made me feel comfortable right away.”
“All of my RBTs were AMAZING, and went above and beyond to not only help me, but to also help my students. They created LASTING relationships with each and every child and actually cared about their well beings.”
“All of the RBT's were very PROFESSIONAL, and were very skilled and knowledgeable in what they did in my room. I honestly wouldn't have survived without them.”

“School-Based Behavior Consultation has completely changed my classroom for myself, the student receiving services, as well as the other children in the classroom. I am an elementary school teacher who has minimal training and some experience with students on the autism spectrum. I had a student in my class on the spectrum who was behaving in a manner way outside of my training and knowledge. I went to school every day feeling like I was failing that child as well as the others in my classroom. Enter Annie (RBT) and Kristie (BCBA), from School-Based Behavior Consultation. There are not enough words to express my gratitude for Annie and all that she has done. She not only taught the student... strategies for dealing with transitions, emotions, executive functioning, and much more, she has also taught me so many techniques to use with that student. She has transitioned seamlessly into the classroom setting, working with me as well as teaching me... I now feel like I have the tools necessary to help ALL of my students succeed...”
