Management of Inappropriate Sexual Behaviour

ABA Support for Inappropriate Sexual Themes

The purpose of Applied Behaviour Analysis or ABA is to improve family life and assist children in reaching their full potential. Applied Behaviour Analysis Services for inappropriate sexual behaviour is provided when a care-giver determines an inappropriate behaviour. If you believe that something is inapropriate, we can work together to find the most suitable approach, taking into account that sexual behaviours vary.

Understanding the Function Behind Inappropriate Sexual Themes

Before any support plan is developed, a functional behaviour assessment is carried out. This process helps to understand the reasons behind the behaviour—whether it’s for attention, sensory input, curiosity, or other needs. By identifying the purpose of the behaviour, we can make evidence-based recommendations tailored to the child’s unique context.
Our team then works closely with the family or caregivers to provide practical strategies and structured guidance. These tools aim to reduce inappropriate sexual themes while supporting the child’s emotional and developmental growth in a safe, respectful way.

Building a Personalised Support Plan with Families

The caregivers, in collaboration with the professionals will participate in the development of a comprehensive support plan to address the behaviour of concern and teach appropriate alternative behaviours. After this, training on how to provide support is provided for the family and anyone involved from the wider community.

Guided Support for Families and Communities

Our team offers structured guidance to address inappropriate sexual themes through Applied Behaviour Analysis. We begin with a detailed assessment, followed by a personalised plan developed alongside caregivers. Families and key community members receive training to ensure consistent support. This approach helps children replace behaviours with appropriate alternatives, fostering their growth in a respectful, supportive environment.

Addressing inappropriate sexual themes requires understanding, collaboration, and care. At Willingness, we support families with practical strategies tailored to each child’s needs. With professional guidance and community involvement, we help children grow safely and confidently. Together, we work towards long-term positive change and improved wellbeing for everyone involved.
