I'm Nahoma Presberg, a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA, NYS-LBA), and I offer parent coaching for families navigating a new diagnosis, challenging behaviors, and the everyday work of raising a neurodivergent child.
Getting a diagnosis — or just realizing something's harder than it should be — can leave you with more questions than answers and not much room to process any of it. I help families slow down, understand their options, and build routines that actually work for their kid and their household. My approach is neurodiversity-affirming, trauma-informed, and grounded in real behavior-analytic science, not a one-size-fits-all script.
How I can help:
-
New to a diagnosis?
I'll help you get oriented — what it means, what your options are, and what to focus on first. Short-term support designed for the early, overwhelming part.
-
Dealing with challenging behaviors?
We'll figure out what's driving the behavior and build strategies that fit your family, not a generic playbook.
-
Handed a treatment plan you don't understand?
I'll walk through it with you line by line, translate the jargon, and help you advocate for what your child actually needs.
-
Working with a provider and not sure it's going well?
I've spent years inside the insurance and ABA-provider system. I can help you evaluate services, ask the right questions, and push back when something's off.
Why work with me?
Over the past eight years I've worked in home-based ABA — as a direct care provider and as a supervising BCBA. That's taught me two things: effective support has to account for sensory needs, learning history, trauma, and emotional well-being, not just target behaviors; and the systems families are handed to navigate this are often confusing and under-explained. I try to close that gap — grounded in behavior science, but never losing sight of the family in front of me.
