Applied behavior analysis (ABA) is an evidenced-based therapy with proven results.

What is ABA therapy?

ABA therapy for autism and other behavioral or mental health challenges is a flexible approach to behavioral learning, designed to encourage positive behaviors while decreasing harmful or disruptive behaviors.

How Does it Work?

ABA certified therapists design a personalized treatment plan that uses positive reinforcement, art, music, puzzles, games, outdoor adventures, and more to help build communication, social, academic, and adaptive skills while also decreasing challenging behavior.

The benefits of ABA therapy

Since the 1960s, clinicians have used ABA therapy to help people with autism gain new skills and enjoy a variety of positive outcomes.

Daily living

Focus on the basics, such as following daily routines, mealtime skills, toileting, and hygiene.

Communication

Develop a wide range of communication skills, from learning how to follow directions and simple greetings to improved conversation skills and how to ask for help.

Socializing

Build social skills, including sharing, teamwork, and engaging with new people.

Independence

Gain confidence and independence by practicing community-based skills such as grocery shopping, money management, and personal safety.
