About this therapy

What it is.

Behavioural therapy helps children with tantrums, aggression, difficulty following routines, or challenges linked to autism and ADHD. It starts by understanding what a behaviour is communicating, then teaches new skills that meet the same need in a better way.

Parents are a big part of it. We share strategies you can use at home, so the same approach carries through the whole day.

    Clear, simple steps you can use every day.

Families ask

Good questions.

Is this just a phase?

Some behaviour is part of growing up. If it is frequent, intense or getting in the way of daily life, it is worth talking to us.

Is behavioural therapy only for autism?

No. It helps many children, with or without a diagnosis.

Will I be involved?

Yes. Parent involvement is one of the biggest factors in progress.
