At NSBH, we treat aggression with professionalism and understanding of the individual needs of the resident. The clinical teams works with the family and resident to gain an understanding of the underline cause(s) for the aggression. The resident is encouraged to work with his/her primary therapist to address the cause in a safe environment. The resident is also encouraged to attend CBT groups, which can help the client control their aggressive through learning coping mechanisms. The resident will have every opportunity to work through their aggression if they are willing to put in the work. This level of work will be a part of their treatment plan that the resident and therapist will create together.
