What is ABA?

Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) is the leading approach in therapy based on the science of learning and behavior to improve developmental delays associated with autism by the US Surgeon General and the American Psychological Association. ABA therapy will help your child reach their full potential by focusing on increasing desirable behavior and communication skills, improve attention, social skills and minimizing unwanted problem behaviors.

ABA utilizes evidence-based, best practices to develop individualized programs for each child. Each program is carefully designed by a Board-Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) and utilizes data-based decisions to ensure learning that meets the needs and skill level of each unique child while incorporating your child’s interests and preferences.
