Expertise & Compassion

True Connection.
Person-First Practice.

Unlike corporate ABA chains, we focus on highly personalized, one-to-one service. You will always know the dedicated professionals working with your child.

Our Founder & Clinical Director

Doctoral-Level BCBA-D

With a deep commitment to elevating the standard of ABA care, our founder is not only a doctoral-level BCBA-D, but has actively shaped the next generation of practitioners. As a university professor since 2011, they have spent over a decade training students to become highly effective, compassionate Board Certified Behavior Analysts.

This academic rigor and passion for teaching flows into every aspect of South Texas Behavioral Institute. We don't just assign therapists to your child; we continuously train, mentor, and elevate our team using the absolute latest evidence-based practices.

"Our goal isn't to see as many patients as possible. It's to provide the deepest, most life-changing level of individualized care for the families we serve."
