Autism is a neurological condition typically characterized by impaired communication skills, repetitive behavior, and atypical social skills.

The Autism Spectrum refers to varied degrees in which the diagnosis impacts the person's day to day life.

Some children on the Autism Spectrum may require extensive supports while others need only a few accommodations, if any.

The acronym ABA stands for Applied Behavior Analysis

ABA uses a systematic and scientific approach to teach new skills and improve behavior.

ABA techniques are beneficial to children on the Autism Spectrum because skills are broken down into smaller teachable steps, building a stable foundation for learning new, complex tasks.

Using the principles of learning through positive and negative consequences, behavior change occurs.

ABA can teach a broad array of skills from early language, communication, toilet training, all the way to advanced social interactions.

Applied Behavior Analysis is a research based treatment for creating meaningful behavior change. Treatment can be applied to a variety of populations and a variety of settings.

ABA is an effective treatment for children diagnosed with ASD.

We offer one to one intensive ABA therapy, social skills groups, and an early learning program to fit the needs of the individual learner.

ABA therapy works to systematically increase adaptive skills while reducing barriers to learning.

Autism can now be diagnosed at as early as 18 months of age. ABA therapy services may begin once a child is diagnosed and skills are evaluated by a Board Certified Behavior Analyst.
