• Promoting Positive Behavior Through Skill Building

    The Rialto Unified School District’s Therapeutic Behavioral Specialist (TBS) team provides targeted behavioral support to help students overcome social-emotional challenges that impact their success in school. Our goal is to support students in developing the skills necessary to manage behaviors that interfere with learning and peer relationships.

    TBS staff deliver services through classroom presentations, small group sessions, and individualized support—always focusing on skill building, not counseling. These proactive and responsive supports are designed to help students increase self-awareness, strengthen emotional regulation, and build strategies for success both in and out of the classroom.

    TBS Services Include:
    ✅ Classroom-based presentations promoting positive behavior and coping strategies
    ✅ Group and individual behavioral skill-building sessions
    ✅ Collaboration with school staff and families to support consistent implementation
    ✅ Practical tools to improve decision-making, peer interactions, and emotional control

    Please note: TBS providers do not offer counseling or therapy services. Their focus is on equipping students with practical, developmentally appropriate tools to navigate behavioral challenges in the school setting.

    At Rialto, we are committed to helping every student succeed. TBS plays a vital role in ensuring that students who need additional behavioral support receive it in a compassionate, structured, and empowering way.
