Our
Philosophy
Behavior is a symptom,
not a problem itself.
At Booth & Company., Inc., we believe that behavior is a symptom, not the problem itself. Rooted in Adlerian theory, our approach views individuals as holistic beings driven by the need for belonging and significance. True change occurs not by focusing solely on behavior, but by identifying and addressing the underlying causes that drive it.
Through comprehensive assessment, real-world observation, and evidence-based intervention, we work to uncover the root motivations behind behaviors. Research shows that when interventions focus only on surface-level behaviors, they provide temporary relief rather than sustainable growth. Instead, we take a collaborative, holistic, and therapeutic approach, ensuring that individuals are not simply corrected, but understood and supported in developing healthier, more adaptive ways to meet their needs.
We recognize that many behaviors—particularly those associated with disabilities—are innocent expressions of an individual’s experience. When misunderstood, these behaviors can become socially motivated reactions to punitive responses. By shifting the focus from reaction to understanding and guidance, we help prevent the escalation of new, challenging behaviors while fostering positive, lasting change.
Our ultimate goal is to
empower individuals to live meaningful, purposeful lives,
not through control, but through self-awareness, skill-building, and a sense of connection
- because true growth happens
when people feel
valued, capable, and understood.
