Behavioural Concerns about Your Child
There are a variety of reasons why a child might behave a certain way and at Canoe Therapy, our children’s Behavioural Therapists believe that it’s our job to identify what might cause specific behaviours in your child.

Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA)
We also provide a therapy treatment called the Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA) that is a therapy treatment for children having difficulty developing social skills and other problems. Scientifically proven to develop lasting, positive changes in individuals with autism, we focus on improving specific behaviours such as social skills, communication, reading and academics as well as adaptive learning skills such as fine motor dexterity, hygiene, grooming, domestic capabilities, punctuality and job competence.
