Certain individuals may resort to self-injurious and aggressive behaviors, as these methods may have proven to be the most effective means of meeting their needs and desires. While such negative behaviors can have adverse effects on both the individual and those around them, it's crucial to recognize that these actions may stem from a prolonged history of learned behavior and a deficiency in necessary skills. At Winsome Therapy Clinic, our approach involves meticulous data collection and the completion of a comprehensive functional behavior analysis. This process enables us to delve into the root causes of these negative behaviors. Once we grasp the function behind the behavior, our focus shifts to replacing it with a new and safer alternative that still addresses the individual's needs, fostering positive and adaptive responses.
