skills based treatment
"Most children engage in some problematic behavior, but for some, it happens often enough and/or with such intensity as to be seriously concerning. These problem behaviors might include self-injury, physical aggression towards others, and property destruction. Severe problem behavior happens, in large part, because it produces personally relevant outcomes (reinforcers) for the person who exhibits it. All children, including those with autism or other diagnoses, can live a life free of severe problem behavior. Freedom from problem behavior is possible when children are explicitly taught the skills of communication, toleration, and other appropriate behaviors in the sorts of challenging situations that have produced problem behavior in the past and then skills are generalized to additional contexts" (FTF Behavioral Consulting, 2023.)
GVBSC has the highest number of certified PFA/SBT staff on the Western Slope, including a Level 6 SBT trainer, and over 5 certified Level 4 providers.

"The Professional Crisis Management Association, was created by Neal Fleisig and other behavior scientists in 1984 in response to the practice of forcing people into compliance during a crisis with inappropriate and often dangerous physical interactions. In essence, people were being treated as if they had committed a crime.
Many of these practices are still in use today, and can be seen in various market leading non-behavioral programs of crisis prevention and management. These programs surround their inappropriate and in some circumstances even dangerous physical interactions with non-evidence-based practices. Some even promote their programs with unsubstantiated claims of over 90% reduction in behavioral episodes. If this were true, then there would be no need for clinical treatment after a few days of training in this program.
PCMA prides itself on having the only curricula fully based on Applied Behavior Analysis. It is designed to fit into existing treatment and educational programs and is focused on prevention and creating a safe and positive learning environment for all" (PCMA, 2023).
