Behavioural Therapy

Our Approach:

Child-Centered and Evidence-Based

Individualized Behavior Plans:

Each child undergoes a thorough psychological assessment by a qualified clinical psychologist to identify specific behavioral challenges. Based on this, a personalized intervention plan is designed.

One-on-One Therapy Sessions:

Behavioral therapy is delivered through one therapist-one child sessions, ensuring focused attention, deeper understanding of the child’s needs, and tailored goal setting.

Family and Parent Training:

We actively involve parents in the therapy process. Parents are guided to implement behavior management techniques at home, ensuring consistency and reinforcement across environments.

Holistic Focus:

Behavioral therapy is integrated with other services like speech therapy, occupational therapy, and developmental pediatrics, as needed, to address the child’s overall development.

Key Areas Addressed in Behavioral Therapy:

• Improving Attention and Reducing Hyperactivity:
  Especially important for children with ADHD, to help them concentrate, control impulses, and stay organized.
• Managing Challenging Behaviors:
  Reduction of tantrums, aggression, non-compliance, and self-injurious behaviors using Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) principles and other evidence-based methods.
• Developing Social Skills:
  Teaching appropriate peer interaction, sharing, turn-taking, and understanding social cues — critical for children with Autism and Social Communication Disorders.
• Enhancing Emotional Regulation:
  Helping children recognize and manage feelings like anger, anxiety, or frustration through age-appropriate coping strategies.
• Building Daily Living and Adaptive Skills:
  Training children in basic self-help activities such as toileting, feeding, dressing, and grooming to foster independence.

When Should You Seek Behavioral Therapy?

Parents and caregivers should consult our psychologists if the child:

• Displays frequent aggression, hitting, biting, or other harmful behaviors
• Has difficulty following instructions or routines
• Shows excessive tantrums beyond the expected age
• Struggles with peer interaction or playing cooperatively
• Shows signs of anxiety, phobias, or withdrawal from social situations
• Faces challenges in adjusting to new environments or transitions
• Engages in repetitive or restrictive behaviors (in ASD)

What Makes Our Behavioral Therapy Services Unique?

• One Therapist – One Child Policy:
  We believe each child deserves undivided attention to address their unique behavioral and emotional needs.
• Custom-Designed Goals:
  Every therapy plan is based on comprehensive assessments and regular progress monitoring.
• Parent Empowerment:
  Parents receive guidance, home programs, and support to ensure therapy techniques extend beyond the clinic.
• Interdisciplinary Collaboration:
  Our psychologists closely coordinate with speech therapists, occupational therapists, and developmental pediatricians for holistic care.
• Focus on Real-Life Functioning:
  We aim not just to manage behavior in therapy sessions but to equip the child to function better at home, school, and in social settings.

Parent’s Role in Behavioral Therapy:

• Attend regular parent counseling and feedback sessions.
• Implement recommended behavior strategies at home consistently.
• Communicate progress and challenges to the therapy team.
• Stay patient and positive — behavioral change is gradual and steady.

Remember:

Behavioral challenges are not intentional misbehavior — they often signal underlying developmental or emotional needs.

With early intervention, structured therapy, and parental involvement, significant positive changes are possible.

A child-friendly, supportive environment — like at KhushKids — makes therapy effective and enjoyable for the child.
