Collaborative Approach
Our team of experienced ABA professionals are eager to work with area school districts and related service providers (e.g. SLP, OT, PT) to implement Treatment Plans based on individual IEP goals.
The Behavior Helper Academy (TBHA) has emerged is a premier therapeutic academic center in St. Charles County, serving students from 9 local school districts. We provide a unique and supportive environment for learners of all ability levels, from those with severe emotional and behavioral challenges to students requiring additional classroom support to unlock their learning potential. TBHA differentiates instruction based on each student’s classroom placement and Individualized Education Plan (IEP). Our students range from those who qualify as MAP-A participants and graduate based on their IEP goals to those earning credits and graduating under Missouri DESE’s state graduation requirements.
TBHA specializes in serving students with educational identifications such as Autism (AU), Emotional Disturbance (ED), Intellectual Disability (ID), and Other Health Impairments (OHI).

We provide outplacement education for students in grades K-12.
Education programs are tailored to meet student IEP goals.
Our Special Education Teachers, Speech-Language Pathologists and Occupational Therapists work closely with our Board Certified Behavior Analysts to manage significant problem behavior (e.g. physical aggression, self-injury, property destruction etc...).
We offer 1:1 or 1:2 therapist to student ratios for a more intimate and invididualized educational experience.
