How does behaviour therapy support transitions, like starting school?

Behaviour therapy prepares children for major transitions—like starting school, moving house, or entering new environments—through social stories, visual schedules, and desensitisation strategies. For children on the NDIS, therapists may work alongside educators and families to develop individualised transition plans. These often include preview visits, gradual exposure, and reinforcement for managing anxiety or following new routines.
