Our approach to supervision is designed to provide both individual and group support, ensuring that every consultant receives personalized mentorship while also benefiting from collaborative learning with peers.

- Ongoing Professional Development: At Family Centered Practices Group, we prioritize continuous learning and growth, ensuring that our staff are consistently equipped with the skills and knowledge needed to provide the best support to the families we serve. We offer a variety of workshops for our behaviour interventionists that cover a broad range of important topics, including neuroaffirming practices, trauma-informed strategies, proactive approaches, and the core principles of behaviour analysis. In addition to specialized workshops for behaviour interventionists, we place a strong emphasis on essential skills such as time management and stress reduction to help our team maintain a healthy work-life balance. We also prioritize diversity, equity, and inclusion, empowering staff with the tools and knowledge needed to create a more inclusive and supportive environment for all. To ensure that staff continue to grow professionally, behaviour consultants at FCPG utilize Behavioural Skills Training (BST) to provide ongoing support, feedback, and guidance. By fostering a culture of continuous education, we help our team members achieve their personal and professional goals, while enhancing the quality of care we provide to the families we support.
- Flexibility and Variability: Working as behaviour consultant allows you opportunities to set your own schedule and ensure a healthy work-life balance, which is essential for maintaining a long-term career in the field. As a behaviour consultant, you have the opportunity to work in a variety of settings, such as a client’s home or community environments like daycares. This diversity in settings ensures that every day brings something new, making your work dynamic and exciting. Across each setting, you can learn to work collaboratively with a variety of other professionals, sharing innovative strategies, which promotes continuous learning, and ensures that all aspects of a client’s development are supported. Importantly, behaviour interventionists and consultants are in a position to advocate for the individuals they serve and contribute to the broader conversation on neurodiversity and inclusion. By promoting evidence-based practices and educating communities, you help raise awareness and foster greater understanding and acceptance of neurodivergent individuals
