What is ABA Therapy?

Applied Behavior Analysis is the scientific approach to understanding why we do the things that we do.

ABA therapy is simply: learning what in our environment causes us to make the everyday choices that we make, then applying that understanding to kids who really need it to make significant progress in their development.

Is ABA therapy only for autism?

No. Applied behavior analysis is a scientific approach to teaching, not only for teaching kids with autism. But we’ve learned through research that it happens to be the most effective treatment for kids with autism. These techniques of ABA therapy have been shown to work over and over again. ABA is just using that understanding to help people overcome their challenges.

How does ABA therapy work?

Children learn best when they’re engaged, happy and having fun. When children are excited to spend time with us, we can capture their attention and make a tremendous impact.

Young children learn best through play, so that’s how we teach. Whether it’s tossing a ball, blowing bubbles, or pushing on the swing—these are all perfect opportunities to teach communication and social behaviors like requesting, turn-taking, and learning patience. These skills build the foundational tools that your child will use to engage their teacher, develop meaningful friendships, and navigate the world with independence.
