About this service
Behaviour therapy (BT) is based on the principles of Applied Behavioural Analysis (ABA) and focuses on reducing challenging behaviours and teaching new skills. It has many applications, including reducing aggressive behaviour, improving language skills, enhancing social behaviours, reducing self-injurious behaviours and toileting. BT focuses on observable behaviours rather than attitudes or beliefs; results are measurable and designed to be maintained over time.
ABA is an evidence-based approach that is considered to be effective in helping children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). One common misconception is that BT can only be used to treat ASD; while the therapy is useful for treating this disorder, it has much broader applications.
