Our services

Four ways we help your child grow.

Every plan starts with a careful evaluation and is built around your child's goals, routines and environment.

Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA)

An evidence-based teaching approach that builds language, play, academic, motor, self-help and daily-living skills, and reduces challenging behaviors such as aggression or self-injury.

All agesAutism & developmental disorders
How it works

Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) is a science-based therapy that uses evidence-based strategies to understand and improve behavior. By modifying antecedents and consequences and using interventions such as positive reinforcement, differential reinforcement, and the Premack Principle, ABA helps reduce challenging behaviors, such as aggression, self-injury, and tantrums, while increasing adaptive and replacement skills.

ABA focuses on developing communication, social interaction, learning, and daily living skills to promote greater independence and improve quality of life. Although ABA is used across various populations, it is particularly well known for its application with individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD).

One-on-One ABA Therapy

Intensive 1:1 sessions based on an individualized intervention plan, with parent training to help new skills carry over at home.

4–40 hours per weekSessions up to 6 hours
How it works

Following a comprehensive evaluation of your child’s needs, skills, and behaviors, an individualized treatment schedule is recommended based on medical necessity, typically ranging from 4 to 40 hours per week of combined services, subject to clinical needs and insurance authorization. Direct treatment is provided by a trained behavior technician under the supervision of a qualified Behavior Analyst to reduce challenging behaviors and improve communication, social interaction, safety, and daily living skills.

Functional Behavior Assessment (FBA)

A problem-solving process that looks beyond the behavior to understand why it happens, so we can choose interventions that address the cause.

About 3 observationsLeads to a Behavior Intervention Plan
How it works

A Functional Behavior Assessment (FBA) is conducted by an experienced, Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) to identify challenging behaviors and determine their possible functions. The assessment typically includes direct and indirect methods, such as caregiver interviews, record reviews, and approximately three observations across relevant environments, coordinated in advance with the caregiver. The information gathered is analyzed to develop individualized, data-driven treatment recommendations based on the individual's needs and applicable payer requirements.

Behavior Support Consultation & Parent Training

Time with parents and caregivers to talk through ongoing behaviors and practice the strategies that work, with or without your child present.

Parents & caregiversAnalyst + behavior assistant
How it works

Caregivers are evaluated and coached by both the Analyst and the behavior assistant, so everyone at home responds to behaviors in the same, consistent way.

For schools and educators: all of our services can be adapted to school districts and classrooms, including consultation on writing Behavior Intervention Plans.
