Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) Therapy
Applied Behavior Analysis Therapy (ABA) can help children struggling with developmental disabilities, learning disabilities, autism and mental health concerns. We help you and your kids find their footing and get them on the path to living their lives to the fullest.
What is ABA Therapy?
ABA therapy is one of the leading autism therapies and can have a significantly positive impact on helping children develop a wide range of life skills. Our ABA therapists work closely with your child to provide them with the tools and skills they need by applying principles of behavior and learning. Want to start helping your child live their best life? Request an appointment.
Every one of our therapies is personalized, but ABA therapy specifically can focus on:
- Increasing communication, social relationships and positive behaviors
- Decreasing learning deficits and challenging behaviors
- Motor skills
- Language skills
- Academic skills
- Self-care (including toilet training)
For which conditions does ABA therapy work best?
ABA therapy is primarily used to treat Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), but the strategies and tools provided through ABA can also be highly effective for people with Sensory Processing Disorder and other behavioral health disorders.
While individuals of all ages have shown positive behavioral changes, ABA therapy has been highly effective for children under four as an early intervention technique. Let us help you explore what might work best for your child.
How we approach ABA therapy.
Once it’s determined your child is a good fit for ABA therapy, they’re evaluated by one of our Board-Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBA.) We’ll start with a skills assessment, such as ABLLS-R or VB-Mapp. After the assessment, we’ll write a comprehensive plan that drives your child’s educational program. All of our BCBAs work closely and collaboratively with your family, school and other therapists to provide a comprehensive treatment approach that includes a range of effective strategies.
