SERVICES
Reframing Behavior's was founded on a vision that quality care can be achieved by looking at meaningful behavior outcomes and individualized care given to the consumer and their families. The consumer and their stakeholder are the focus of treatment. With this in mind, the treatment team ensures that their work is constantly evaluated by using data to drive the decision-making process, and using evidence-based practices in providing the foundation of which the treatment goals are built on. Reframing Behavior is constantly aligning their efforts with their values of compassion, humility, and dedication to empowering the consumers and their loved ones.
​
Reframing Behavior is currently serving clients in the Oakland, Berkeley, Richmond, San Leandro, and Hayward area. We also offer telehealth services and this will be dependent on what the client and their family needs as determined by the assessment proces. Please feel free to contact us for questions regarding services and locations.
Parent Training
Reframing Behavior offers parent led and parent training services that are individualized to meet the families need as a parent and educator. Reframing Behavior's owner spent time researching and analyzing how to work with parents and caregivers using a parent-led service model and arrived at a blueprint on how to assess and tailor the scope of instruction and training provided, while taking into account the busy lives of parents as they raise their children
Assessment
Reframing Behavior uses direct assessment methods and tools in determining the relevant and necessary skill areas needed for the individual being assessed. Direct assessment is also used in parent training and consulting services and is essential in crafting the most important treatment goals for the individual, parent or group. Reframing Behavior believes in obtaining consent and assent when assessing and employs an open-door approach to assessing to guarantee that the person being observed is always free to leave when they want and that there is no coercion in the process. See the video below for an example!
Consulting
Reframing Behavior provides consulting services to individuals and groups. This includes reviewing pertinent records and environmental factors to provide behavior intervention plans for individuals. Consulting can also take the form of collaborating with others to devise behavior-change programs for individuals or groups, and staff training on implementing the programs.
1 to 1 behavior intervention
Reframing Behavior provides one-on-one behavior therapy and has experience working with individuals ranging from 2-60 years of age. With the information from the assessment, Reframing Behavior will identify skill areas that will be the focus of the sessions. Using Naturalistic Environment Training or Skill Based Treatment, Reframing Behavior works with the client and their family by first prioritizing the establishment of a therapeutic relationship between the clinician and the individual. Reframing Behavior believes that the foundation for a truly successful intervention plan is that the client and their family trust, enjoys working with, and are empowered to drive the learning process.
WHAT TO EXPECT
Here at Reframing Behavior, our approach is to assess and identify the goals for treatment using empirically-validated tools (e.g., Essential for Living, PEAK, VB Mapp). The goals are broken down into teachable components and principles of reinforcement are used in establishing skills that the client/group needs. Therapeutic rapport is always prioritized and we ensure that the team has earned the trust of the individual before we embark on any teaching. Reframing Behavior believes in the importance of a thorough analysis of the individual and their environment to identify the areas of need, and the use of reinforcement principles in creating a happy and trusting environment in which the client and the therapist are collaborating on achieving treatment goals.
