LiFT offers a behavioral modification approach derived from the science of behavior analysis to facilitate positive changes for both the child and the family in the home. We help individuals and families in the greater Los Angeles area greatly improve their quality of family life by increasing self-esteem, accountability and coping skills, while minimizing disrespectful and explosive behavior. In a process built on a solid foundation of evidence-based techniques based on the science of applied behavior analysis (ABA), we assess each family’s individual needs by devising concrete and attainable goals in order to create a positive and peaceful home environment.
The aim of LiFT is to build the individual’s set of life skills that will foster autonomy and self-reliance. We begin with problem-solving using concrete tools, techniques and strategies. We use logical consequences and incentives in place of punitive measures to cultivate motivation and new behavioral habits. This increases self-esteem and transforms negative behavior. We work side by side with the family to provide professional support and increase their proficiency and resiliency in dealing with challenging behaviors.
