Behave'n Day Treatment Center

“Behave’n Day Center welcomed my child and promised to never turn us away. The support and strength I received was incredible. My child started to show signs of improvement within the first week of their treatment. Behave’n had reduced my child’s raging so drastically! He has many friends now, he’s on a local wrestling team and he’s doing exceptionally well in school! He is happy for the first time in his life.”

“It is difficult to describe the frustration and sense of helplessness we felt as we watched our child’s outbursts occur more and more frequently and become more severe. Our child improved dramatically in a very short time. Positive changes have been carried over into all areas of our lives. Our child is once again the loving, funny little child that just a few weeks ago we were unsure we would ever see again.”

“Our son was at Behave’n for 2 days and was a reformed new child. We call it a miracle. He listens, he is very polite, he is confident, and he is fun to be around. We are proud to say he graduated Behave’n in 7 weeks and is currently in Kindergarten and adjusting great. Behave’n Day Center has been so supportive and we are grateful.”

This is Luke's story:
I am the parent of a child with bipolar disorder, impulse control disorder and anxiety. Ours was a world filled with confusion, unhappiness and emotional chaos. From the time my son, Luke, was a toddler I knew that something was different about him. He would become very sad and violent from time to time; other times, he act very loud and silly -- "wild" would a fitting term. Then, there would be the times when a very intelligent, loving, charming, sweet child would appear. I never knew from one minute to the next how his moods could change so drastically. Trying to tie discipline into this irrational behavior was a nightmare!

This is Tess' story:
My daughter, Tess, had been going to a preschool prior to moving to Behave 'n Day Center. When Tess was at preschool, there was a lot of aggression and she refused to listen to the teachers or the other students. I had taken her to a nurse practitioner who diagnosed her with ADD and put her on a medication called Adderral, but she did not get any better. Tess later had a reaction to the medicine and we took her off of it. The practitioner then started her on Zoloft, but it didn't her any better either. She was very lethargic, not like a normal 4-year old should be, so the practitioner took her off Zoloft, too. When I was at hospital, I found a Behave'n Day Center flier and made an appointment to talk to the director. By this time, the preschool warned me that Tess would be kicked out if she had any more outbursts.
