Center for Optimal Brain Integration

It’s a beautiful day in the far north in Shasta, CA training early childhood and elementary age parents all day.

We are so happy to share that our free children's APP that intentionally teaches young children ages 3-8 about emotional literacy, body awareness and sensory literacy has now been migrated over to our website instead of in the APP store. Our APP, now located on our website comes with a downloadable guide in English and Spanish for parents, teachers and caregivers. https://www.optimalbrainintegration.com/trigger-stop

Trigger Stop: A sensory and emotional check-in tool for children

Help children communicate what they're feeling when emotions are intense and they become dysregulated. Drag emotion faces and sensory indicators to the body to express internal states.

We’re thrilled to announce that our new book, co-authored written by an incredible multidisciplinary team of educators and mental health professionals across the country, is now officially available for pre-order!

This project was built from a shared commitment to helping schools better support students with intensive behavioral and social-emotional needs through culturally responsive, healing-centered, and trauma-informed practices. We are deeply grateful to every co-author who brought their expertise, compassion, and lived experience to these pages.

Through real Pre-K–5 case in-depth vignettes, actionable Tier 3 strategies, and practical implementation tools, this book offers a roadmap for educators and school leaders who are committed to creating equitable systems where every child to thrive and build resilience.

Together, we hope this resource helps schools move beyond crisis response toward meaningful, student-centered support that transforms outcomes for children, families, and entire campus communities.
