The Behaviour Hive

For when behaviour is affecting home, school or family life

Behaviour assessment and support plan

First we find out why the behaviour happens. Then we write a clear plan for home and school, and show you how to use it.

Not sure you need a full assessment? That's what the free call is for.

From other parents

What parents say

We came to The Behaviour Hive struggling with my child's intense fear of dogs, weather and anxiety which was significantly impacting our child's day to day life. Katie's approach with our child along with her professional expertise and genuine care, allowed our child to open up and engage with the therapy process at their pace. Through the personalised strategies and tools provided, our child has learned to navigate their anxiety with confidence. Seeing them go from being paralysed by fear to now managing encounters with dogs and going about day to day life like their friends is a milestone we thought we might never reach. Katie's work has equipped our child with lifelong coping skills and a new found confidence. We are so grateful for the expert care that helped our child and family. I would highly recommend their services to any parent seeking support for their child.

How we work

Understanding, not correction

We treat behaviour as communication, not misbehaviour to be eliminated. Our approach is evidence-based and neuro-affirming, grounded in Positive Behaviour Support, never about changing who your child is.
