Our Mission and Philosophy

Beyond the Door Behaviour Associates Inc. (BTD) is committed to helping children living with neuro-developmental disorders (including Autism Spectrum Disorder) develop the necessary Communication, Intellectual, Physical, Behavioural and Social skills for successful integration at home, at school and in the community.

We believe that every learner has the potential to develop beyond their current level and deserves the opportunity to maximize their abilities and reach their full potential. We are dedicated to personal ‘hands-on’ service.

The ABLLS-R and VB-MAPP skill assessments, are utilized as a guide in developing our programs which are monitored and supervised by a Supervising/Senior Therapist and Clinical Director BCBA. We provide services for private clients as well as those receiving the Ontario Autism Program (OAP) funding. We meet with and involve families at all stages of program development and progress evaluation and collaborate with auxiliary service providers (such as Speech Pathologists and Occupational Therapists) or schools as requested and necessary.

While the majority of the service we provide is directly with the child, the parents/families are vital players in the child’s intervention. Our team of Professionals works closely with families every step of the way and provides parent/caregiver Training for successful participation in their child’s Therapy.

Behaviour Management/Modification Service is for any child with behavioural challenges and is not limited to children with neuro-developmental disorders. By analyzing the function of the behaviour, we are able to implement strategies to modify/eradicate undesirable behaviour and increase desired behaviour. This service includes parent/caregiver Training and or 1:1 coaching.
