What are Behavioral Issues?
Behavioral issues refer to patterns of behavior that deviate from socially accepted norms or expectations and may cause problems for individuals and those around them. These issues can manifest in various settings, such as at home, in school, in the workplace, or within the community. Behavioral problems can be exhibited by people of all ages and may result from a combination of factors, including biological, psychological, and environmental influences.
How is treatment tailored?
Addressing behavioral issues at Foundation House often involves a comprehensive approach that may include behavioral interventions, CBT, attachment-based work, individual and group therapy, and, in some cases, medication.
Foundation House works to identify the underlying causes and provides appropriate support and interventions that can help individuals and families manage and overcome behavioral challenges.
The Foundation House approach to treating Behavioral Issues:
Behavioral Therapy
Behavioral therapy is a broad approach that focuses on modifying behaviors through various techniques. This may include positive reinforcement, shaping, and token economies. Behavioral therapy is often used for issues such as aggression, oppositional behavior, and disruptive behaviors.
Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT is a widely used and evidence-based form of psychotherapy that focuses on the connection between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It is a goal-oriented therapeutic approach designed to help individuals identify and change patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to their difficulties or distress. CBT is rooted in the idea that our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are interconnected and that changing negative thought patterns can lead to changes in emotional well-being and behavior. CBT is used at Foundation House in both group and individual therapeutic settings.
Attachment-Based Work
Attachment-based work refers to therapeutic approaches and interventions that focus on understanding and addressing attachment patterns and dynamics, particularly in the context of relationships. Foundation House uses attachment-based work as a framework for understanding the impact of early relationships and attachments on an individual’s emotional and relational well-being throughout life. The goal is to explore and enhance the quality of attachment relationships, promoting healthier and more secure connections between individuals. Having more secure relationships yields better behavior. Attachment-based work is interwoven into our conversations, groups, activities, and individual therapy sessions to reinforce these connections.
