ABA Therapy is a scientific, evidence-based approach focused on understanding and improving behavioral challenges.

We focus not just on reducing challenging behaviors, but on building the skills that lead to positive interactions, learning, and overall well-being. Our goal is to empower children to reach their full potential and achieve personal success and happiness.

Q1: What is ABA Therapy?
ABA (Applied Behavior Analysis) is a scientific discipline that focuses on understanding how behavior is affected by the environment. It uses principles of learning and behavior to bring about meaningful and positive changes in behavior. ABA therapy identifies specific skills or behaviors to target and develops strategies to teach those skills or reduce challenging behaviors, using positive reinforcement to encourage desired outcomes. It's widely recognized as an effective treatment for individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and other developmental disabilities.
Q2: How does the ABA therapy process work?
The process typically begins with a comprehensive assessment to understand the child's current skills, challenges, and goals. Based on this assessment, a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) develops an individualized treatment plan (ITP) outlining specific, measurable goals and the strategies to achieve them. A Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) then implements the plan under the direct supervision of the BCBA. Regular progress monitoring and data collection ensure the therapy is effective and the treatment plan is adjusted as needed.
Q3: How much does ABA therapy cost?
The cost of ABA therapy can vary depending on factors like the child's specific needs, the intensity of the program, the location, and the provider. Many families explore insurance coverage options, as some extended health benefits plans may cover a portion of ABA therapy costs. We work with families to understand their financial situation and insurance coverage to provide transparent information and explore available options. Please contact us at (778) 608-2398 or visit our website for more details on our fee structure and insurance billing.
Q4: What ages do you work with?
We primarily work with children and adolescents, typically from early intervention age (around 2-3 years old) up to teenagers. Our focus is on helping children develop crucial skills during their developmental years. We tailor our programs to the specific developmental stage and needs of each child.
