FAQs
Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy is a research-based approach designed to improve social, communication, and learning skills through positive reinforcement. It’s widely recognized as the gold standard for helping individuals with autism achieve their full potential.
ABA therapy is most commonly used for children diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), but it can also benefit individuals with developmental delays, behavioral challenges, or social skill deficits. Early intervention often leads to the best outcomes, but ABA can be effective at any age.
ABA therapy focuses on breaking down complex skills into smaller, manageable steps. A Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) designs a custom plan for each child, using positive reinforcement to encourage desired behaviors and reduce unwanted ones.
ABA therapy can help with:
-
Communication and language skills
-
Social interactions
-
Daily living skills, like dressing and eating
-
Behavioral challenges
-
Emotional regulation
-
Academic readiness

Progress is carefully tracked using data collected during each session. Therapists regularly assess a child’s development, adjusting their approach as needed to ensure continued growth.
Sessions are tailored to the child’s needs and can include one-on-one therapy, group activities, or play-based learning. Activities focus on skill-building, such as communication, imitation, and problem-solving, in a structured yet engaging way.
