Problem Behavior Reduction
What maintains a problem behavior?
At Motiva Learning, we understand that children experiencing delays in pivotal developmental skills may often engage in challenging behaviors. These behaviors can be overwhelming, making it difficult for your child to communicate effectively or complete even simple tasks. That's why we offer problem behavior reduction as a crucial aspect of our early intervention ABA therapy services.
​
Addressing Challenging Behaviors
Challenging behaviors can vary widely in intensity and nature, making each child's situation unique. Our approach is centered on identifying and addressing the underlying deficits or necessary skills that may be contributing to these behaviors. We firmly believe that by improving different developmental skill areas, we can significantly reduce problem behaviors.
​
Comprehensive Assessment
The first step in our problem behavior reduction process is to gain a thorough understanding of the situation. Our team conducts home and school visits to observe the child in their natural environment. This enables us to assess the context in which these behaviors occur, identify potential triggers (antecedents), and understand the consequences that may be reinforcing the challenging behaviors.
​
Collaborative Care
We recognize that caregivers play a pivotal role in the child's development. Your insights are invaluable. Caregivers' reports provide added information about the setting, antecedents, and probable consequences, which are essential for designing an effective intervention plan.
​
Behavior Support Plan
Based on the comprehensive assessment, we create a Behavior Support Plan tailored to your child's specific needs. This plan serves as a roadmap for caregivers, outlining a strategic course of action for decreasing challenging behaviors and promoting the development of desirable ones.
​
Empowering Positive Change
At Motiva Learning, our ultimate goal is to empower positive change in your child's behavior and development. We believe that every child has the potential to thrive, and with our problem behavior reduction strategies, we can help your child communicate effectively, complete tasks with confidence, and overcome challenging behaviors.
