Applied Behavior Analysis
What is Applied Behavior Analysis?
Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) is a therapy based on the science of learning and behavior.
ABA therapy is a revolutionary method that improves children's quality of life by helping them
to overcome difficult behaviors and acquire positive skills.
ABA (Applied Behavioral Analysis) is the gold-standard treatment for problem behaviors linked to Autism Spectrum Disorder and other neurodevelopmental issues. At its heart, ABA therapy is built around a simple idea: If a child is rewarded for displaying positive behaviors, they are more likely to adopt those behaviors long term.
ABA therapy is typically provided by a Registered Behavioral Technician, under the supervision of a Board-Certified Behavioral Analyst. For best results, it’s best to supplement professional therapy with parent-led ABA techniques in the home.
What to Expect from ABA Therapy?
We deliver ABA therapy in various contexts and settings: while your child is playing in the home or learning and socializing in school or the community. We don’t believe in cookie-cutter solutions, and instead tailor our approach to meet your child’s unique needs and goals.
We provide most ABA therapy on a one-to-one basis, but also offer Social Skills groups, which deliver the rich benefits of regular contact with peers. In addition, we emphasize parental involvement and provide ABA training for parents; to empower you to reinforce the positive changes you’ll see in your child.
Rest assured, before beginning therapy we’ll conduct a detailed assessment to identify areas of greatest need. In this way, we’re able to plan and implement a genuinely bespoke therapy program to deliver maximum benefits.
