Our Story
Children's Behavioral Services is a multidisciplinary pediatric team providing Applied Behavior Analysis and Occupational Therapy services to children in South Central Missouri. CBS was founded by Amanda Riviello, a Board-Certified Behavior Analyst who specializes in pediatric therapy in 2019.
Children's Behavioral Services began as a small, one-room operation and has since grown into a state-of-the-art facility with multiple treatment pods, inclusive classroom spaces, and custom sensory gym. In the spring of 2023, we moved to our new location at 2240 County Road 1270, Willow Springs, MO 65793. Our second clinic location opened in June 2024 at 205 East Trish Knight Street Suite 1, West Plains, MO 65775.
Children's Behavioral Services is committed to providing outstanding, effective behavioral support services and therapy services in both our clinical settings, in local schools, and in clients’ homes.
Our Services
1
Applied Behavior Analysis
Often regarded as the "gold-standard" for autism treatment, applied behavior analysis (ABA) is an evidence-based therapy based on the science of learning and behavior. ABA programs can help to increase language and communication skills, improve social and academic skills, and decrease problem behaviors. We currently offer ABA therapy in our Willow Springs and West Plains locations.
2
Occupational Therapy
Occupational Therapy, or OT, uses everyday life activities (occupations) to promote health, well-being, and a person's ability to participate in important activities in their life. OT therapy is provided by Occupational therapists and occupational therapy assistants and is currently offered in our Willow Springs location, with OT services beginning in our West Plains office in Fall 2024.
3
Community Support
Here at Children's Behavioral Services, it is our goal to ensure our learner's success while providing parents and caregivers the support they need to ensure best outcomes for those in their care. We offer direct parent/caregiver training in our clinics, customizable training for schools and community partners, as well as offering sponsored informational seminars and free support groups.
