GET ANSWERS EARLY AND HELP YOUR CHILD COPE
Early identification of behavior problems benefits both your child and your family. This enables all the members to understand what the condition is all about and contribute their part to help the child cope with the many challenges ahead.
At Alternative Behavior Counseling LLC, we specialize in home-based treatments for children with or without a diagnosis of autism, attention-deficit disorder (ADD), or attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). We welcome clients in Miami, Florida and the surrounding areas.
WHY SEEK PROFESSIONAL HELP?
It can be tough to tell if the troubling behavior in a child is just part of growing up or a problem that should be discussed with a health professional. However, if there are signs and symptoms that last weeks or months, and if these issues interfere with the child’s daily life not only at home but at school and with friends, you should contact a health professional.
As many as one in four children through the age of five are at risk for a developmental delay or disability. Early identification allows communities to intervene earlier, leading to more effective treatment during the preschool years.
We implement individualized behavioral plans to reduce problem behavior and improve functional communication and adaptive learning skills. Our team of professionals will work with your child in his/her natural environment, interacting and providing cues and feedback to advance your child’s ability to learn and process new skills.
You are the expert regarding your child. Therefore, we will partner with you to create an environment that promotes learning opportunities and experiences tailored to your child’s needs. We work with your child in the environment where problem behaviors occur.
