Behaviour is the outward manifestation of what is going on inside the child’s mind.

What we do at GCWC?

Behaviour manifestation is the tip of the iceberg. It is crucial to know the details of the problematic behavior therapy in psychology in terms of its frequency, intensity, precipitating factors, and maintaining factors.

More often than not, behaviours could be a part of a disorder or syndrome. The key to changing behaviour is to understand it first. That is where our team of experts including Psychiatrists, Child Psychologists, behavioral psychotherapy, and counsellors come into the picture. They follow a structured format of:

  1.  Functional Behaviour Analysis
  2.  Detailed Family History
  3.  Structured Evaluation to assess the presence of any disorder
  4. Engineering Behaviour Modification programme

The usual therapeutic behavioral services B.E.S.T (Behaviour and Emotional Structuring Therapy) programme can last 6-12 sessions, followed by booster programmes. The booster sessions ensure that the modified behaviour problems is reinforced and maintained.
