Family Behavioral Coaching

Children with disabilities, especially those on the neurodivergent spectrum, may experience challenging behaviors that can pose risks to themselves, others, and their environment. As a highly skilled and experienced manny, I have successfully worked with clients who engage in self-injurious behaviors, aggression, elopement, and other problematic behaviors to address and correct these behaviors, ensuring the child’s and family’s safety and the others involved.

I understand these behaviors are not the child’s fault but are triggered by neurological, mental, emotional, or medical issues. Families of children with such behaviors need guidance and support to regain a sense of peace, structure, and calmness in their lives, and that’s where I come in.

Through my program, which is available both in-person and through TeleManny video sessions, I provide comprehensive support to help you understand the tools and techniques necessary to manage behaviors, a phone showing the TeleManny app, and stating that "This service is available through TeleManny video sessions."improve relationships, and restore balance in your and your child’s life. The program includes the following:

  • Six hours of observation of the child and family interaction allowing me to gain insight into the behaviors and dynamics.
  • A follow-up discussion of my observations, where we can collaboratively create a plan to address your concerns and goals.
  • Three training sessions to discuss the behaviors I observed and the likely causes of the behaviors, and provide you with practical tools and techniques to reduce or modify the behaviors.
  • Coaching sessions where I observe you utilizing the tools and techniques I taught and provide further guidance on their implementation. These sessions will be scheduled according to your family’s needs and resources.
  • After-hours on-call support, as needed at an additional cost, to provide ongoing assistance and guidance.

With my expertise and support, you will learn practical strategies to manage challenging behaviors, better understand your child’s needs, and create a more harmonious and supportive family environment. Whether through in-person or TeleManny video sessions, I am committed to helping your family achieve positive outcomes and regain a sense of peace and stability.
