Behavioural Therapy
Behaviours (language, social, academic, leisure and functional life skills, aggression, self-injury, oppositional, and stereotyped behaviours) .We work on decreasing inappropriate behaviours while increasing more appropriate replacement behaviours! We start by determining the function of the undesired behaviours, then teach the child functional communication or another appropriate replacement behaviour. We develop an individualized positive reinforcement-based intervention plan. Parent/caregiver training is critical to insure consistency across individuals and settings.
