Behavioral Therapy

At Premier Pediatrics, we understand that a child’s behavior is a form of communication. Whether it’s difficulty with emotional regulation, frequent meltdowns, social challenges, or trouble focusing, behavioral concerns can impact daily life—for both the child and the entire family. That’s why we’re proud to offer in-house Behavioral Therapy, designed to help children develop the tools they need to thrive.

What Is Behavioral Therapy?

Behavioral therapy helps children understand and manage their emotions, behaviors, and interactions with others. Through evidence-based approaches—such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), play-based interventions, and positive reinforcement—our licensed therapists work with your child to build skills in:

• Emotional regulation and coping

• Impulse control and attention

• Social skills and peer relationships

• Managing anxiety, frustration, or anger

• Building confidence and problem-solving abilities

Common Signs Your Child May Benefit:

• Frequent tantrums or emotional outbursts

• Difficulty following directions or sitting still

• Struggles with transitions or changes in routine

• Anxiety, worry, or withdrawing from social situations

• Aggressive behavior, defiance, or mood swings

A Collaborative, Child-Centered Approach

What sets our behavioral therapy apart is our collaborative, in-house model. Our therapists work closely with your child’s pediatrician and, if needed, other in-house specialists to create a cohesive care plan tailored to your child’s specific needs. This ongoing communication ensures consistency across appointments and the most effective support for your child.

Getting Started

If you’ve noticed behavioral changes or ongoing challenges, we encourage you to speak with your child’s pediatrician or contact us directly. Early support can make a meaningful difference, and we’re here to help every step of the way.

Helping your child feel understood, supported, and empowered—because every child deserves to thrive.
