Behaviour Consultation Program
Our Behavioural Consultants aim to improve the quality of life and participation of children and their families by supporting clinicians and caregivers in addressing behavioural concerns in children with identified needs. Support is offered through assessment, consultation, and education.
Behaviour consultation services may include:
- Expert guidance and support for frontline clinical service providers
- Brief individual intervention with children and families
- Group-based interventions
Eligibility and Referrals:
- Consultation services are available by referral from a Niagara Children’s Centre therapist only and are limited to families of toddlers and preschool-aged children currently receiving core Centre services of physiotherapy, occupational therapy, and speech-language pathology.
- Educational workshops are available to families of children/youth of any age who are waiting for or receiving any Niagara Children’s Centre services.
- If you have concerns regarding your child’s ability to participate in their therapy or reach their therapy goals due to behaviour needs, please discuss those concerns with your therapist.
Education Workshops:
In addition to consultative services, the behaviour consultant offers a variety of educational workshops covering topics related to emotional regulation, toileting, and more. Check out our calendar of workshops and events for upcoming offerings.
Funding for our Behaviour Consultation Services is provided, in part, by the Ontario Trillium Foundation:
