About Megan DeLeon Miller, Ph.D., BCBA-D
Curiosity Officer and Founder at Do Better Collective
I’m a behavior analyst, speaker, and unapologetic training nerd who believes we set the emotional climate in every learning space we enter—and that how we show up matters as much as what we teach.
With a Ph.D. in Behavior Analysis and Special Education, over 15 years of international consulting experience, and more than 100 presentations under my belt, I’ve spent my career helping practitioners, parents, and organizations translate complex science into meaningful, human-centered practice.
I founded the Do Better Collective to create the kind of learning space I wished existed when I was starting out: one that’s research-informed, radically affirming, and refreshingly practical.
Whether I’m building CEU courses, hosting live trainings, or jamming with my son about emotional regulation (yes, we use airplane metaphors), I’m committed to work that’s grounded in compassion, collaboration, and critical thinking.
Some things you should probably know:
- I don’t do jargon for the sake of jargon. If we can say it simply, we will.
- I’ve been promoting trauma-assumed alternatives to extinction since before it was trending—because relationships, regulation, and respect have always come first.
- And yes—I still get excited about a well-broken-down shaping protocol that actually works in the wild.
If you’re here to create meaningful change—not just collect CEUs—you’re in the right place.
Let’s do better. Together.
