When behavior feels overwhelming, it can be hard to know what to do next. The Behavior Bootcamp offers coaching for parents, educators, and professionals who need practical, compassionate support during challenging moments at home, in the classroom, or within a program setting.
Dr. Bethany Bilodeau helps you understand what behavior is communicating, identify the safety and regulation needs underneath it, and create realistic strategies that can be used right away. Her coaching is designed to help you move from reacting in crisis to responding with confidence, clarity, and a plan.

For teachers, school staff, and educational teams who are managing disruptive, aggressive, avoidant, or dysregulated behavior in the classroom.
Classroom coaching helps educators understand why a student may be struggling. what signs to watch for before behavior escalates, and how to respond in ways that restore safety instead of increasing stress. Dr. B works with educators to create practical classroom strategies that support regulation, connection, and learning.
This may include support with classroom routines, transitions, student engagement, escalation patterns, sensory needs, communication, and behavior plans that actually work in real-life school settings.
For parents and caregivers who are dealing with difficult behaviors at home and feel unsure what to do next.
Home coaching helps families understand the nervous system patterns behind challenging behavior and create strategies that feel realistic for daily life. Dr. B supports parents in responding to meltdowns, aggression, refusal, transitions, sleep struggles, sensory needs, and emotional outbursts with more confidence and less shame. The goal is to help families build safety, predictability, and regulation so home can feel calmer for everyone.

Dr. B’s approach is rooted in neuroscience, behavior change, sensory awareness, trauma-informed care, and safety-based intervention. Instead of looking at behavior as “bad choices” or “defiance,” she helps parents and educators understand behavior as communication from the nervous system.
Through coaching, you will learn how to recognize early warning signs, respond before behavior escalates, and create practical plans that support both the child and the adult. The focus is on strategies that are simple, effective, and usable in the moments when you need them the most.

Classroom coaching helps educators understand escalation patterns, identify early signs of dysregulation, adjust routines and expectations, and respond to behavior in ways that support safety, regulation, and learning.
Home coaching helps parents understand what may be driving challenging behaviors and give families practical tools for transitions, meltdowns, refusal, aggression, emotional regulation, and daily routines.
Sessions are typically scheduled based on the needs of the family, educator, or team. A consultation call can help determine the best coaching structure.
Coaching options may be available virtually or in person depending on location, needs, and availability.
Pricing may vary depending on the type of coaching, length of support, and whether the coaching is individual, family-based, classroom-based, or team-based. This can be discussed during the consultation call.
Coaching services are not therapy or medical treatment and are typically not billed through insurance.
You do not have to wait until things feel unmanageable to ask for help. Coaching can support you during a crisis, but it can also help you build proactive strategies before behavior escalates again.
You don’t have to figure this out alone. Whether you are managing challenging behavior at home, in the classroom, or within a program, coaching can help you create a clear plan and feel more confident in your next steps.
