Owner & Clinical Director
Jodi Huffman Burgart, M.Ed, BCBA is a Board Certified Behavior Analyst who also holds a Master's degree in Early Childhood Special Education and a Bachelor's degree in Psychology. With advanced training in autism, complex behavioral needs, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and a certification as a yoga teacher, Jodi brings a rare combination of clinical depth and holistic perspective to her work with children, families, and schools.
Jodi has spent more than twenty years working alongside families navigating their most challenging seasons, schools building stronger systems, and children with a wide range of social, developmental, and behavioral needs.
Partnership is at the core of everything Jodi does. Whether she is working with a parent, a school team, or a child, her approach is grounded in connection, deep respect, and the belief that meaningful progress happens when people feel truly understood and supported.
At the heart of her work is a simple belief: every child, family, and school community deserves to feel supported, understood, and like they truly belong.
How it started:
Mindful Me was established in 2015, inspired by the Baltimore riots that ensued after the tragic death of Freddie Gray. It was founded upon the fundamental belief that every child deserves access to high-quality education, every person should have their basic needs met, and all individuals should feel safe and cared for in their own communities. Initially, Mindful Me started as a trauma-informed preschool program that incorporated yoga and mindfulness techniques within Head Start programs in west Baltimore.
