Behavior Therapy
When a child has Developmental Delays or Autism, it is critical to teach them foundational skills early. Early Intervention ABA will help them learn as many skills as possible and prevent significant challenges later in their life- our therapy model ensures that this happens:
Each child has their own team that consists of:
Board Certified Behavior Analyst- The BCBA will get to know every child and their family personally- learning the child’s goals, current skills, and what skills to prioritize to maximize progress. The BCBA will lead their team, run assessments, and oversee their programming/progress.
Registered Behavior Technician- The RBT will work one-on-one with a child on a daily basis- implementing their program and tracking their progress. During a child’s session the BT ensures that the child is comfortable in their environment with a combination of play, work and daily living skills. For children who need more support, we can provide multiple BT’s to help ensure the safety and productive learning of the child.
Our ABA Therapy sessions utilize research-based, tested teaching methods while maintaining an environment that is collaborative, engaging, and fun!
