Behavioural & Developmental Therapists
Our early intervention behavioural and developmental therapists are professional and committed people who are dedicated to assisting families and children to reach their potential and goals in life. We provide behavioural and developmental therapists to most suburbs around the Perth Metropolitan area including the eastern, western, northern and southern suburbs.
Our therapists have all been through our comprehensive and intensive training program. They all receive ongoing regular supervision and support and are committed to long-term therapy with the families they work with. Our therapists have acquired skills training in (1) Pivotal Repose Training (2) Natural Environmental Training (3) Applied Behaviour Therapy (4) Independent, paired or group Social Skills Training and (5) Shadowing in day-cares, Kindergartens and Primary School settings. Our team members have different educational experiences. Some of our therapists are studying towards a university degree in Speech Pathology, Clinical Psychology, or Occupational Therapy. Some already hold a degree and for others, a role as a behavioural and developmental therapist is their chosen career as result of extensive experience in the field prior to working with us.
The behavioural and developmental therapists all share common traits of patience, problem solving abilities, flexibility, a sense of humour and a positive outlook.
