Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA)

ABA is an evidence-based intervention that helps us to understand behavior and impact change such that learning increases as challenging behavior decreases. Focus is centered on the child’s individual needs across behavior support, communication, socialization, and adaptive skills.

Therapy sessions are offered in-home or center-based, depending on location, child needs, and availability. Services are delivered using the principles of Applied Behavior Analysis within the context of natural and structured environments that foster development in social interaction, communication and language, and adaptive functioning. The intensity of our interventions are dependent on the child's needs.

• Discrete Trial Training (DTT)
• Verbal Behavior
