Benefits of Behavioral Support Services

Customized Intervention Plan – At Heart to Heart, our behavioral health team works alongside other specialists to provide the most appropriate behavioral support plan for individuals in our care. Individuals who receive Behavioral Health services are visited by a member of Heart to Heart’s Behavioral Team, who conducts assessments and develops treatment plans under the supervision of our Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA).

The Behavioral Support Specialists have an understanding of the types of behavior and the emotional challenges individuals and their families face daily. This allows for our behavioral team to determine the options or resources that are best suited for each individual. Treatment plans are designed around the strengths and needs of individuals, preferences of family and caregivers and evidence-based practices.
