Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA)

Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) is the application of the principles of behavior to bring about meaningful and positive changes in behavior. We work with parents and clients to find out the cause of certain behaviors, and agree on appropriate replacement behaviors. New behaviors will be introduced, and skills will be taught to increase your child’s independence and skill level.

This field is backed by evidence-based research and driven by data. Many decades of research have validated treatments based on ABA, and it is widely accepted to be the most effective, evidence-based therapeutic approach used for the treatment of autism. This structured teaching of functional skills has the largest body of published research supporting its efficacy.

In the treatment of Autism, ABA methods are intended to support individuals with autism spectrum disorders in many ways, to include:

Services

  • Increase behaviors (e.g. to increase on-task behavior, or social interactions) and to teach new skills (e.g., life skills, communication skills, or social skills)
  • To maintain behaviors (e.g., self- control and self -monitoring procedures to maintain and generalize job-related social skills)
  • To generalize or to transfer behavior from one situation or response to another (e.g., from completing assignments in the resource room to performing as well in the mainstream classroom)
  • To restrict or narrow conditions under which interfering behaviours occur (e.g., modifying the learning environment)
  • To reduce interfering behaviors (e.g., self -injury or stereotypy)
