Behavioral Disturbances

Understanding Behaviors. Supporting Growth. Building a Brighter Future.

At Lotus Behavioral Health Services, we specialize in helping children, adolescents, and adults who are struggling with behavioral disturbances—persistent patterns of disruptive, impulsive, or aggressive behavior that interfere with daily life. Whether at home, in school, or in relationships, these behaviors can be challenging for both individuals and families. Our goal is to uncover the “why” behind the behavior and offer the right support for meaningful change.

What Are Behavioral Disturbances?

Behavioral disturbances refer to actions or reactions that fall outside the expected range of typical behavior for a person’s age and situation. These can include:

  • Aggression or angry outbursts
  • Defiance or refusal to follow rules
  • Hyperactivity or impulsiveness
  • Self-injury or property destruction
  • Difficulty with authority or peer relationships
  • Chronic irritability or mood swings
  • Withdrawal, tantrums, or meltdowns

These behaviors may be symptoms of underlying conditions such as ADHD, Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD), Disruptive Mood Dysregulation Disorder (DMDD), autism spectrum disorder, trauma, or anxiety and mood disorders. Without proper support, they can impact social development, academic performance, and emotional well-being.

How We Help

At Lotus Behavioral Health Services, we don’t just manage symptoms—we focus on understanding the emotional and psychological roots of disruptive behaviors. Through thoughtful evaluation, expert therapy, and sometimes medication support, we help individuals and families restore calm, improve communication, and build healthier patterns.

Therapy for Children, Teens & Adults

Our licensed therapists use age-appropriate, evidence-based strategies tailored to each individual’s unique challenges. This may include:

  • Behavioral therapy to promote positive behaviors and reduce negative ones
  • Parent coaching and family therapy to strengthen household dynamics and structure
  • Social skills training for peer interaction and emotional communication
  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to teach coping tools and emotional control
  • Emotion regulation techniques to manage anger, anxiety, and frustration

We empower clients to identify triggers, build self-awareness, and develop more adaptive responses to stress and conflict.

Medication Management

In cases where symptoms are severe or linked to another mental health condition, medication can be a helpful part of the treatment plan. Our psychiatric providers carefully assess each case and work closely with families to determine the safest and most effective options.
