Challenging Behaviours

Challenging Behaviours

(Functional Behaviour Assessment)

We assist families and caregivers in helping to reduce challenging behaviour in order to maximize learning and independence. Using a targeted approach that begins by assessing the “function” or cause of problem behaviour, we emphasize learning new adaptive skills and/or means of communication to replace the problem behaviour.

Applied behaviour analysis (ABA) is an evidence-based practice that has been successfully shown to help reduce and improve behaviours such as: tantrums, self-injury, aggression, disruptive behaviour, feeding issues, toileting, and sleep problems. There are so many clinical uses of ABA! If you’re not sure if your needs can be met by ABA, please reach out and we can work together to identify how we can best support you. If we cannot support you through our services, we can point you in the right direction!
