Who provides ABA Therapy, and where does it take place?

Do you have a waiting list for ABA therapy services?

What does a typical ABA session look like?
An ABA session usually starts out with the RBT® building a connection with your child by engaging in their favorite activities. Then, the RBT® will alternate between structured and unstructured activities that are child-led and play-based to target the goals in the treatment plan. The RBT® will also collect data on your child’s progress which allows the BCBA® to monitor progress. Each session is tailored to your child- planned with careful consideration of their therapy goals, progressing abilities and even their favorite activities!
Will my child enjoy therapy sessions?
That’s the goal! ABA sessions are focused around play and are filled with positive reinforcement so that your child stays motivated to learn. We do not use any punishment techniques and we keep therapy centered around activities that are child-led and play-based.
