More Services
At Kindred Communication, everything begins with communication.
We believe communication is foundational to independence, emotional regulation, safety, relationships, and quality of life. When communication breaks down, challenges often emerge. When communication strengthens, growth becomes possible.
All of our services are built on this principle:
Behavior is communication — but communication is not a behavior.
Our supports are designed to increase clarity, autonomy, connection, and long-term independence across environments.
Behavioral Intervention
Behavior is communication…but communication is NOT a behavior. This is what makes us different.
Our Behavioral Intervention services focus on understanding the why behind behavior and building safer, more effective ways for individuals to communicate their needs.
Rather than focusing solely on reducing behaviors, we prioritize:
Identifying the communication function of behavior
Teaching replacement communication strategies
Building emotional regulation skills
Supporting executive functioning
Increasing independence and self-advocacy
We conduct thoughtful assessments to understand environmental triggers, skill gaps, and communication barriers. From there, we create individualized support plans that emphasize teaching — not compliance.
Our approach integrates:
Functional behavior assessment
Communication-based intervention planning
Caregiver coaching and training
Data-informed decision making
Collaboration with speech-language providers
The goal is not simply behavior reduction. The goal is safety, clarity, autonomy, and long-term skill development.
