NBN Group - Behavioral Health

New Behavioral Network

The Behavioral Consultation Program is based on Applied Behavioral Analysis principles and practices for those children and adults on the autism spectrum. Our mission is to provide evidenced-based best practice strategies to maximize the personal potential of each client. Compassion and sensitivity are combined with clinical competence and expertise. Our Board-Certified Behavior Analysts will conduct a Functional Behavior Assessment (FBA) in the home and in the school setting to evaluate a learner’s current skill levels and any challenging behavior that might impede independence or success across environments. A treatment plan is then developed that targets acquisition of skills that will improve a learner's successful integration into his or her community, as  well as to reduce socially inappropriate or impeding behaviors.
