Sapphire Robinson, M.S. ABA, BCBA, LBA

"I'm a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) with a passion for helping individuals of all abilities achieve meaningful progress through compassionate, evidence-based support. With a background in serving children and adults in various settings such as schools, clinic, family homes, and residential group homes since 2018, I founded Progressive Behavior Advocates to bridge gaps in access to quality ABA services, particularly in underserved communities.

I believe in meeting clients where they are—literally and figuratively—and fostering growth through collaboration, respect, and individualized care. My approach is rooted in science, advocacy, and a deep commitment to making a lasting difference in the lives of those we serve."
