ABA Therapy
ABA therapy focuses on shaping behavior through prompting and fading procedures along with the use of positive reinforcement that are functional and child-specific. Our goal is to help our clients develop the skills that they need in order to be successful in their daily lives. Our team of Board Certified Behavior Analysts are passionate about leveraging the most current evidence-based practices when developing and individualizing programming for the clients and families that we serve.
