You know us for helping families navigate tough moments — tantrums, aggression, and those what do we do now? moments. But what if we could help before things get that hard?

Introducing our newest service:
Proactive Parenting Support

This isn’t our typical one-on-one behavior coaching. It’s a lighter, more accessible option for families who aren’t currently struggling with big behaviors — but want to be intentional about raising kind, resilient, and well-regulated kids from the start.

✅ Compassionate strategies
✅ Practical tools
✅ Support to stay ahead of challenges

💚Call us to see how we can help support your family (904) 373-8318

May 4th was Thrive’s official anniversary! Two years ago I delivered the first service. In the last year we’ve:

- Helped more than 87 families start to increase communication, emotional regulation skills, and decreased challenging behaviors. We’ve worked with more than 100 families since Thrive started
- Graduated 28 clients from services with 8 upcoming. 33 total since Thrive started
- Grown from 15-20 sessions this time last year to 27-35 every week.
- Helped 10 kids get back into or maintain placement in their school environment.
- Worked with 2 foster families to provide compassionate and trauma assumed behavioral services
- Helped reunify 2 parents with their children
- Helped advocate as an expert witness to help a child maintain least restrictive environment
- Expanded and added several services including; behavioral sleeping therapy, behavioral feeding therapy, school trainings, CBIT (for Tourette’s), situational anxiety therapy, and proactive parent coaching for those without behaviors! New website coming (hopefully 😅) soon
- Last, but not at all least, I want to shout out our amazing team! Mykah is an incredible part of the Thrive team and has helped so many families! Alexandria just came on as our phenomenal jack of all trades RBT, assistant, and homeschool teaching help. Her families already love her!

I can’t wait to see what more Thrive has in store for the third year 🙂 Thank you from the bottom of my heart to everyone who has supported us, trusted us with their children, and trusted us with referrals. I’m more appreciative than I can say. 💚

There are some days that leave you so proud that it’s impossible to describe. I have the opportunity to work with one of the most brave little girls in the whole world and her most supportive family. She is working through some strong situational anxiety and is such a little fighter. This song reminds me of her and her incredible spirit! I love thinking about how far she’s come and how far she’s still going to go. Here’s to you my sweet G! Rock it girl 💜
