What can your Emotional Behavioural Specialist do?
Emotional Behavioural Specialists have received a degree from a recognized institution in Community Rehabilitation and Disability Studies or related area, in addition to three years of directly related experience. They may also have knowledge in the areas of Science of Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA), Positive Behavioural Interventions and Supports (PBIS), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Therapeutic Play, Attachment, data collection methods, and various psychological diagnoses and their impact on an individual's development. The EBS will build a strong relationship with the students which will help the EBS build a strength-based plan for your learner.
An Emotional Behavioural Specialist is a member of the multi-disciplinary team and provides school-based intervention services for students who display severe emotional and/or behavioural challenges, as well as create skill building plans. The EBS will provide coaching and consulting to the teacher in order to help create the best learning environment for your student.
