WHAT WE OFFER


PARENT/CARER COACHING
​
-
Parent/carer participation is important to us. Parent/carers who are actively involved with their child's intervention plan often see more progress resulting in better outcomes for the child.
-
The goal of parent/carer coaching is to identify strategies that can be used effectively in the natural environment a child.
-
Prior to implementing any program, we ensure it works for your family and that you are comfortable with implementation.
-
Areas of concern may include: toilet training, sleep training, reinforcement, positive behaviour support, communication issues and functional skills
-
We offer the Balance Program (FTF Behavior Consulting, 2020) to provide parents with an evidence-based method of addressing emerging problem behaviour in children with Autism. Balance is a home-based program designed for young children, approximately 3 - 6 years old, recently diagnosed with Autism. The goals of the program are to:
-
Create a balance between child-led and adult-led interactions
-
allow the child some control of their experiences via functional communication
-
teach children that problem behaviour is unnecessary to have their needs met (K. Ruppel & G. Hanley, 2020)
