Behavioral Issues

What are behavioral issues?

There are a wide range of behavioral issues where parents may seek treatment for their child. These are generally behaviors that disrupt the home / school environment, impede a child's ability to live, learn and socialize independently, or create risk of harm to the child or others.

What do behavioral issues look like?

Ranging from poor impulse control, physical / verbal expressions of anger, to patterns of rule violation, bullying, truancy, drug use, destructive behaviors or lying and stealing, these behaviors can be very challenging for parents and teachers to manage, and can also place the child or others at risk of harm. This can create a great deal of stress for parents and families. Sometimes these behaviors are pain-based responses to triggers and past traumas and reflect a young person's inability to cope.

Generally speaking…

How are behavioral issues treated?

A skilled clinician, specializing in therapy for behavioral issues in Pennsylvania, carefully assesses the child during intake to determine the most effective course of action. A trauma-informed approach in occupational therapy for behavioral issues may help resolve past adverse experiences, aiding the child in coping with stressors. Alternatively, a behavioral approach in Applied Behavior Analysis could assist the child in learning new skills and adopting replacement behaviors to better adapt to their surroundings. Participating in Group Therapy with similar peers might enhance social skills and confidence in interacting with others.
