WHAT IS PEDIATRIC BEHAVIORAL THERAPY?

Pediatric Behavioral therapy is a kind of therapy where therapists help children learn good behaviors or fix ones that cause problems. They figure out why kids act the way they do and show them how to do better. This is helpful for things like tantrums, being too rough, feeling worried, or not focusing. Therapists use things like rewards, saying kind words, and clear rules to make good behavior more likely and stop bad behavior. The goal is to help kids manage their feelings, communicate well, and be friendly with others.
