Hi, I’m Barbara Tiel, RMHCI, and I serve as the Clinical Director of Little Sailors Healthcare. I am deeply committed to providing compassionate, high-quality, and individualized care to children, individuals, and families facing emotional, behavioral, developmental, and mental health challenges. With nearly 10 years of experience in the behavioral health field, I have had the opportunity to support clients with a wide range of needs while developing strong clinical experience in assessment, family support, treatment planning, behavioral intervention, and service implementation. My professional background has allowed me to specialize in working with children and families requiring individualized care, particularly in the areas of developmental and behavioral concerns, autism-related evaluations, parent training, and emotional and behavioral support.

My mission is to create a supportive, professional, and empowering environment where clients and families feel heard, respected, and guided throughout every stage of care. I value empathy, integrity, collaboration, and excellence, and I believe these values should be reflected in every interaction and every service provided. My approach to implementing care is rooted in comprehensive assessment, detailed understanding of each client’s strengths and challenges, individualized treatment planning, and the use of evidence-based techniques that promote meaningful progress. I focus on practical and clinically appropriate strategies such as behavioral support, psychoeducation, caregiver collaboration, skill development, and structured intervention planning to ensure that services are not only effective, but also realistic and sustainable in everyday life.

At Little Sailors Healthcare, I am committed to delivering services that provide clarity, support, and lasting value for the families we serve. My goal is to ensure that each client receives thoughtful, personalized care that promotes growth, confidence, and improved quality of life, while helping families feel supported and empowered every step of the way.
