Connecting the Dots on Behaviour Report

At Lighthouse Therapy Hub we understand that families may be feeling alone and vulnerable. We aim to share our expertise and advice by Connecting the Dots of your child’s behaviour to explore what is happening for them and starting to bridge the gap of understanding, thus reducing stress and stress related behaviours. We unpick your child’s needs so you can stay focused on nurturing healthy, connected relationships for brighter tomorrows. 

If you or others are confused about your child's behaviour and unsure about where to start, at Lighthouse Therapy Hub, we collaboratively dive into the child’s perspective and differing ways of expressing themselves to help you understand what is happening for them.  We creatively explore the possible challenges each family faces from a mixture of questionnaires, interviews and child observations to generate a comprehensive report for you, services and school to utilise.

The report will look at covering:

• What behaviours they are trying to communicate 

• Window of tolerance - how long someone can engage and focus (social and school support)

• Sensory sensitivities and sensory seeking - including food 

• Understanding sleep 

• Dysregulation and what this looks like

• Understanding the limbic (flight/fright/freeze) response 

• How to spot meltdowns and where they come from 

• Understanding emotions 

• Understanding how the brain develops and what impact this has with emphasis on ADHD, ASC (including demand avoidant traits) 

• Where you or your child may fit under neurodevelopmental assessment or which diagnosis may be worth seeking 

• Noticing and how to support aggressive behaviours, self-harm or self-injury 

• Analysing ticks and other repetitive body picking habits 

• Where you are struggling or where your child may be struggling in school/at home
