How will ABA Therapy help my child?

ABA therapy is used to help children with challenging behaviors, and social and communication delays such as Autism Spectrum Disorder, build skills they do not develop automatically and reduce behaviors that interfere with learning and communication. With effectiveness backed up by hundreds of studies, it is considered a best practice treatment by the American Psychological Association and has been used to help children with Autism and related developmental disorders since the 1960s.

ABA therapy applies our understanding of how behavior works to real situations. It can be conducted individually or via group instruction at home, in school, or elsewhere in the community. The goal is to help people increase behaviors or develop skills meaningful to their daily lives, and decrease behaviors that are harmful or affect learning.

At Sprout in Motion, each ABA program is designed and overseen by a qualified and trained Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA). The BCBA begins by conducting a detailed assessment of each child’s interests, skills, needs, and family situation, which are used to write specific treatment goals and develop an individualized treatment plan.

  • Communication and language abilities

  • Self-care and life skills
