Behavior Management (Reduction Program)
Our Behavior Management Plan has been designed to identify and eliminate problem behaviors in children.

At Children's Center For Development & Behavior, we provide interventions to facilitate the reduction or removal of challenging and socially unacceptable behavior in young children. Examples include aggressive and self-injurious behavior, hyperactivity, separation issues and other general conduct problems that become barriers to inclusion in social and family settings.

Our skilled clinicians provide therapies for reduction of feeding disorders, ticks and obsessive-compulsive behavior.

STEP 1: INTAKE PROCESS
(1 hour meeting with the clinician, family and child)

The process begins with a consultation between clinicial and the parent(s) or caretaker. The child must also be present for the intake process.

A formal parent interview is conducted to gather pertinent information relevant to accurately assess the situation and identify/isolate the problem. The clinician will proceed with a formal analysis of the child’s behaviors. This will help isolate and identify the conditions that are responsible for these behaviors.

A fully customized report detailing the conditions that are responsible for the child’s inappropriate behavior will be prepared. The report will include a plan of action for implementation so the individualized behavior management plan will be successful. The right mix of intervention strategies will be recommended. Here are just a few strategies which may be required your child’s customized behavior management plan.

  • Parent Training
  • Child Behavior Modification
  • Chart Systems
  • Social Skills Training

STEP 2: FOLLOW-UP VISIT
