About behavioural therapists

Behavioural therapists work with children whose behaviour is causing significant difficulty — at home, at school, or in social situations. This isn't about labelling children as 'naughty'. It's about understanding what's driving the behaviour (often anxiety, sensory overload, or unmet needs) and finding practical strategies that work.

If your child has frequent meltdowns that feel disproportionate to the trigger, if they're struggling with anxiety that affects daily life, if school are raising concerns about behaviour, or if family life has become dominated by managing difficult situations, a behavioural therapist can help. They're particularly valuable for children with autism or ADHD whose behaviour is often misunderstood.

SEND services in Newcastle

Newcastle City Council's SEND team works across the city with support from the Newcastle Parent Carer Forum. The city benefits from strong links with the Great North Children's Hospital, which provides specialist diagnostic and therapeutic services. Newcastle also has several well-regarded special schools and an active voluntary sector supporting SEND families.

Typical costs

Private behavioural therapy sessions typically cost between £60 and £120 per hour. Some therapists offer packages that include parent training, school visits, and follow-up support. CAMHS (Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services) offer free provision via the NHS, but waiting times are often 12 months or more.
