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.

Every one of our therapies is personalized, but ABA therapy specifically can focus on:

- Decreasing learning deficits and challenging behaviors
- Motor skills
- Language skills
- Academic skills
- Self-care (including toilet training)
What conditions does ABA therapy work best for?
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.) Our clinics focus on achieving individualized goals, tailored for your child. Each session is designed to track progress and adapt treatment plans as needed. 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.

How do I know if my child needs ABA therapy services?
There are several signs that a child may benefit from ABA therapy. Delays in speech and communication, difficulty with social interactions, and frequent tantrums or challenging behaviors can all indicate a need for support. Some children also struggle with daily routines such as dressing, eating, or transitioning between activities. If your child exhibits any of these signs, early intervention can be key in helping them develop important skills.
