⚡ The ‘Why’ Behind the Way: Extinction Burst

Ever push an elevator button that doesn’t work? You press it harder, faster, maybe even multiple times.

That’s an extinction burst. When a behavior stops working, it often gets more intense before it fades.

If things feel like they’re getting harder, it may actually be a sign that your plan is working—consistency is key.

🏠 The ‘Why’ Behind the Way: School-Home Carryover

A skill isn’t truly mastered if it only happens in therapy. Real progress happens when skills carry over into everyday life.

Therapy provides the spark, but home provides the opportunity for repetition and reinforcement. That’s why parent involvement is one of the most powerful drivers of long-term success.

💬 The ‘Why’ Behind the Way: Pragmatics & Social Logic

Language is more than vocabulary—it’s about knowing how and when to use it.

A child might know the word “help,” but do they know how to use it to get attention? Or when it’s appropriate to interrupt? We don’t just teach words—we teach the social rules that help children navigate real-life interactions.

🧠 The ‘Why’ Behind the Way: The ABCs of Learning

To truly understand behavior, you have to look at the full picture. The A (Antecedent) is what happens before, the B (Behavior) is the action, and the C (Consequence) is what happens after.
