APPLIED BEHAVIOR ANALYSIS (ABA)
Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) is the applied form of Behavior Analysis, which is the science of behavior extending back to the early 20th century. It includes the principles of learning, motivation and reinforcement, and looks strictly at observable behaviors.
The word “Applied” means that we use these principles to improve the quality of life of those individuals that we serve! ABA is used to assist in teaching new skills and reducing challenging behaviors. It is the most popular form of therapy used to help improve the quality of life of individuals with Autism and other developmental disabilities. The most beneficial ABA therapy will include consistent collaboration between the provider and the parents, as well as others working with the individual, to ensure consistency and ongoing practice!
Our professional team is here to support our families and their loved ones, and to guide them through the journey of ABA.
