Certified Breathing Behavior Analyst (CBBA)

A Certified Breathing Behavior Analyst (CBBA) is a professional who uses behavioral learning principles to analyze and modify dysfunctional breathing habits that compromise a person’s health, performance, and psychological state.

In the realm of mental health, a person may need a CBBA because their dysfunctional breathing habits are causing or exacerbating various psychological and cognitive symptoms.

Dysfunctional breathing, often in the form of overbreathing (exhaling too much carbon dioxide), can lead to a condition called hypocapnia.

Behavioral Hypocapnia can cause a wide variety of emotional, cognitive, and psychological changes that are frequently mistaken for other causes.

A CBBA addresses these issues by identifying the underlying breathing habits and their triggers, motivations, and reinforcements through a process called “breathing behavior analysis”.

Understanding that breathing is a behavior driven by psychological factors as well as physiological ones, a CBBA can help you manage or overcome issues like:

  • Anxiety, panic attacks, phobias, and emotional dysregulation.
  • Cognitive deficits such as attention, memory, and focus problems, which can be caused by reduced cerebral blood flow due to hypocapnia.
  • Psychological shifts in personality, self-esteem, and mood.
  • Symptoms related to trauma, PTSD, and stress, which are often motivated, reinforced, and perpetuated by dysfunctional breathing habits

Not just treating the symptoms, a CBBA focuses on teaching us how to disengage from these harmful breathing habits and learn new, adaptive ones that restore the alignment between their breathing mechanics and respiratory chemistry.

This person-centered, learning-oriented approach helps achieve self-regulation, enabling us to improve our overall mental well-being and performance.
