What is ABA?
"Thirty years of research demonstrated the efficacy of applied behavioral methods in reducing inappropriate behavior and in increasing communication, learning, and appropriate social behavior."
Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) is the most effective way to change socially significant behavior to a meaningful degree. Some of the skills that we can help your child work on include:
-
Social
-
Language/Communication
-
Academic
-
Daily living
-
Self care
-
Vocational
-
Leisure activities
We use specific therapies based on ABA principles to target each skill, dependent on your child's individual needs. These methods may include:
-
Discrete Trial Training (DTT)
-
Incidental Teaching (or natural environment training)
-
Verbal Behavior
-
Pivotal Response Training
-
Precision Teaching
Programs are unique and individualized according to the needs of each client. Comprehensive assessments are conducted by a BCBA to determine each client’s needs.
*ABA is not limited to autism programs.
