Behaviour Therapy
A method to reward positive behaviours to improve a child's mental wellbeing and quality of life.
Behaviour therapy is based on the principles of a rewards-based approach, using simple to complex applications.
There are many methods we use under the banner of Behaviour Therapy including:
-
Functional Behavioural Analysis, FBA: understanding why a behaviour occurred and what we can do diminish the chances of that behaviour happening again e.g. aggression.
-
Applied Behavioural Analysis, ABA: drilling behaviours and rewarding when those behaviours are demonstrated by the participant.
-
Environmental control: changing a person’s environment to increase the chances of him or her being comfortable, and reducing the chances of triggering negative behaviours.
-
Relaxation training.
