About ABA

Applied Behavior Analysis is a scientific approach to understanding why behavior occurs, effective ways to teach new skills, and how to change behaviors.

ABA therapy involves implementing evidence-based strategies to analyze, understand, and modify behavior. Personalized treatment plans are developed for each client’s unique needs and goals. ABA services are typically provided in a variety of settings, including clinics, schools, homes, and community settings. Treatment sessions are structured and consistent, with ongoing data collection and analysis to monitor progress and make necessary adjustments to the intervention plan.

Overall, ABA services are designed to promote positive behavior change, enhance skill acquisition, and improve the overall quality of life for individuals across the lifespan, including those with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and other developmental disabilities.
