The Institute for Behavioral Health (IBH) is dedicated to bringing the highest quality and most innovative evaluation and treatment programs to children, teens and their families. Parents’ evaluations continue to show that their Calm Parenting Program and their Children’s Social Skills Groups achieve outstanding results! Children with problems in self-control tend to feel incompetent and under confident due to repeated failure to satisfy themselves and others. This leads to emotional reactions, escape and avoidance behaviors, whining, complaining, tantrums and refusal to comply. Parents respond with anger and threats of their own, perpetuating chronic power struggles that destroy any chance for a pleasant family life. IBH’s 12-week Calm Parenting program, teaches parents to successfully manage their own behavior so that their children become more cooperative and their homes become calmer and more harmonious. Assigned activities help parents break the oppositional cycle without reliance upon techniques such as punishment and time outs or tokens and tangible reinforcements. IBH’s Social Skills Groups program improves children’s social competence, or ability to get along with other children. Skills taught include: Anger Control, Dealing with Frustration, Responding to Teasing, Cooperative Play, Joining in with Others at Play, Friendly Conversations, Giving Negative Feedback, and Conflict Resolution. And now IBH’s programs are even easier to access and more affordable than ever! Visit www.631kidhelp.com or call (631)KID-HELP for more details.
