Behavioural Change and
Management Faced with a special
child’s/youth’s frequent tantrums, fights and outright defiance can wear
out even the most resilient parents. For some children/youth, the
patterns of negative behaviour are so ingrained that counselling alone is not
sufficient to bring about a resolution of the problems. Particularly for
younger and less verbally-inclined children, counselling on its own may not
achieve the targetted behavioural change entirely.
To address this issue, we offer a
comprehensive Behavioural Change and Management Programme (BCMC) where our
consultants work in close partnership with the parents to analyse their
child’s/youth’s patterns of behaviour, understand the causes, devise
strategies for a win-win solution, implement the strategies and positively reinforce
the good progress. Observations are carried out in the child’s/youth’s
typical course of activities (e.g. in school or at home) and strategies are
implemented onsite by caregivers or teachers with close guidance from our
consultants. Think ‘Super Nanny’, only that we offer a more comprehensive
and long-term working partnership.
Give us a call
if you need an experienced professional to get to the root of your child’s /
youth’s behavioural problem. No child is totally beyond
control. It just takes the right key to unlock his/her heart.
Social Emotional Learning
Is your child in constant disagreement
with his/her friends? Does he/she have little social success? Social
skills may not come easily to many children / youth with special
needs. For this group of children / youth, specific training in the area
of emotional intelligence is needed to help them better understand
themselves and the dynamic nature of social relationships.
We offer a Social Emotional Learning
(SEL) programme that not only goes beyond MOE’s SEL minimum
age-appropriate standards, but one that is also further customised to each
special child’s/youth’s learning needs and specific
situations. Participants will not only gain self and social
awareness, they will also learn better decision-making techniques,
self-management and relating skills, manners and etiquette, in addition
to building their self-confidence. This programme can be done in groups or on
an individual basis. Drop
us a line today for a discussion if you’d like to see your child’s EQ
improve by leaps and bounds!
