Adolescence is a time of increasing independence, social change, and emotional development. Our Positive Behaviour Support focuses on understanding the behaviours an adolescent is experiencing and building the skills they need to navigate school, relationships, and everyday life. Our PBS specialists complete comprehensive assessments to identify the underlying reasons for behaviours of concern and any skill gaps. We then work collaboratively with adolescents, families, and schools to implement practical strategies that support emotional regulation, decision-making, resilience, and positive social interactions. This approach allows us to support adolescents at different developmental stages without limiting support to age-based expectations.
