FAQ

  • What is Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy?

    Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy is a scientific approach to understanding and modifying behavior. It uses principles of learning and behavior to improve socially significant behaviors in children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and other developmental conditions. ABA therapy focuses on enhancing communication, social skills, and adaptive behaviors, while reducing behaviors that may interfere with learning and daily functioning.

  • How do I know if my child is a good fit for ABA therapy?

    To determine if your child is a good fit for ABA therapy, we start with an initial assessment where we gather detailed information about your child's developmental history, strengths, and areas of need. This includes asking for information such as your child's name and date of birth. Our team of professionals will review this information and recommend a tailored intervention plan that best suits your child's individual needs.

  • What does a typical ABA therapy session look like?

    A typical ABA therapy session is highly individualized and may vary depending on your child's goals and needs. Sessions often include a combination of structured and naturalistic teaching methods, play-based activities, and one-on-one interaction with a trained therapist. The focus is on reinforcing positive behaviors, teaching new skills, and providing opportunities for your child to practice these skills in different settings.

  • How long does my child need to participate in ABA therapy?

    The duration of ABA therapy can vary widely based on each child's specific needs and progress. Some children may benefit from a few months of intensive therapy, while others might require several years of ongoing support. Our team regularly evaluates your child's progress and adjusts the therapy plan as needed to ensure it remains effective and relevant to your child's development.

  • Are parents involved in the ABA therapy process?

    Yes, parent involvement is a crucial component of ABA therapy. We believe that parents play an essential role in their child's progress. Our therapists work closely with parents to provide training, support, and resources so they can reinforce skills and strategies at home. Regular communication and collaboration between therapists and parents help create a consistent and effective learning environment for your child.

  • Does insurance cover ABA therapy?

    Many insurance plans do cover ABA therapy, but coverage can vary depending on your provider and policy. We recommend contacting your insurance company to verify the specifics of your coverage, including any requirements or limitations. Our administrative team is also available to assist you with insurance inquiries and help you navigate the process to ensure your child receives the necessary services.
