ABA Therapy
Applied Behavior Analysis Therapy is an evidence-based practice that applies the science of learning and motivation. ABA therapy can produce meaningful change by assessing, observing, designing, implementing, and evaluating environmental events. It can be used to teach developmental skills including language and communication, daily living skills, social skills, self-management, and more! ABA therapy is an effective practice in the treatment of problem behavior and uses a systematic method to identify patterns and functions of the behavior. Caregivers, siblings, grandparents, and school staff are trained on techniques and intervention to promote generalization and maintenance of skills learned during one-to-one therapy.
Our Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) supervised Applied Behavior Analysis techniques are meant to help individuals thrive. This form of therapy has shown tremendous results for Autistic people and those with other behavioral concerns. Thus, we carefully analyze every individual’s unique needs and develop a comprehensive plan to enhance their skills.
Programs are created by BCBAs after a thorough initial assessment that details your child's unique skills and behavioral needs.
After the initial parent interview and intake assessment, the BCBA will make a clinical determination of medical necessity to indicate the number of hours your child may benefit from.
