Before developing a treatment plan, we have the children undergo a comprehensive behavior assessment to help our experts determine the challenges we need to surmount together. During this phase, we conduct evaluations to help us understand the unique needs and factors affecting the child’s development. We then utilize the gathered data to formulate a customized treatment plan and provide the child’s parents with treatment recommendations. Goal setting also comes into play during our assessment as we benchmark an ideal behavior for the child and brief the parents on what we can do to help their child develop such a behavior. Our behavioral consultants in Fredericksburg, Virginia will also offer expert advice for parents. During these consultations, we share with them their child’s progress and the areas for improvement as their child continues to undergo one-on-one sessions with our practitioners.
