Our key services
Positive Behaviour Support
We offer Positive Behaviour Support for children, adolescents and adults and their families in Wexford and across Ireland. We work with you to understand the "why" behind distressed behaviours. Our goal is to provide tailored, practical strategies that reduce distress and enhance quality of life for everyone.
Adult ASD/ADHD indentification
We provide a supportive, affirming, and collaborative assessment for adults who think they might be autistic or have ADHD. This is a journey of self-discovery, where we help you gain an in-depth understanding of yourself.
Organisational consultancy
We provide guidance and training in Positive Behaviour Support to people working in the disability, mental health, and education sectors.
The aim is to build stronger, more effective teams and inclusive environments where staff feel confident and empowered to better support the people they look after.
Our approach
Our approach is built on respect, compassion, dignity and collaboration.
he premise of Positive Behaviour Support is that all behaviour is communication and that distressed behaviour often indicates unmet needs. It is not about 'fixing' behaviour through punishment and setting hard boundaries.
Through our expert guidance, we seek to understand the 'why' and to work with individuals and their advocates to put in place practical steps to teach new skills that build on unique strengths.
We aim to empower individuals and families and to improve the understanding and skills of people working in support of them to decrease stress and increase quality of life for all.
Testimonials
Deirdre is a very knowledgeable, professional and supportive person. I found her strategies easy to implement and her ideas were specific to our family. After meeting Deirdre once I felt as though she really understood my son in a way which others didn’t in such a short time period. I felt very supported during the experience and Deirdre was very easy to understand and didn’t judge. I would recommend her services to anyone who is looking for advice and support.
Positive experience having my child's behaviours explained and being understood when I described them
I'd specifically recommend Dr Deirdre Kearney, we felt heard by Deirdre. Her empathy and understanding was so important to us. A very encouraging person. Thank you.
