Behavior Care 101

  • Behavior Therapy is all about skill building! 

    Often times the word "behavior" automatically makes us think about tantrums; yelling, screaming, falling to the floor, all of those super difficult, big emotional outbursts. Don't get us wrong, we help support and remedy tantrum behavior on a daily basis but that's just the tip of the iceberg!

    Our Behavior Therapy is be more accurately described as a method of teaching kids any skills needed to bridge gaps in daily challenges.

  • Our Behavior Therapy benefits ALL children of ANY abilities. 

    We work with children who have specific diagnosis and children who simply require a little extra support with 1 or more skill areas. Some of our families are brand new to Behavior Therapy and others are looking for a new, fresh approach! Many of our kids also received Speech, OT, PT and as we always say, collaboration is paramount.

  • We pride ourselves on delivering the most naturalistic Behavior Therapy available.  For our younger kids this looks like sitting on the floor facilitating play-based activities. For our older kiddos we might travel into the community, or support academic learning. 

    At home our goal is to always integrate the child's natural routine. At school we focus on ensuring our kids have every availible oprotuntiy to participate with peers!

  • The majority of our kiddos receive therapy at school and or in-home. Additionally, we love taking outings into the community, visiting a local park, and helping to facilitate playdates!

    Our clinicians work closely with outside therapists such and will often overlap with all applicable "team" members!

“I've consulted Olive Behavior Care several times over the past two years regarding my son. He's much more sensitive and stubborn than my first child, and I didn't know how to correct his behavior. Olive Behavior Care gave me easy, actionable tools and scripts to use with him. Wow, he responded so incredibly well and fast! Two years later, I feel like I know my son in a new way, his true self.”

— Parent (Olive Behavior Care Client)
