Direct ABA Therapy Session
Our comprehensive programs target communication, social, adaptive, and behavioral needs. These programs often require 25+ hours per week and are typically implemented with our early intervention aged learners (2-5 years). Our focused programs pinpoint the area(s) of greatest need in order to prioritize learning in 10-25 hours per week. These programs are often implemented with our school aged learners (6-18 years). Both our comprehensive and focused therapy programs occur in your home by either a BCBA (Board Certified Behavior Analyst) or an RBT (Registered Behavior Technician) under the direction of a BCBA. Consultative services may be provided in school and daycare settings by the BCBA.
Social Skills Program
Our learners often "graduate" from our typical ABA Therapy sessions but may still need support developing social-emotional skills, maintaining friendships, and with community participation. Our Social Skills Program offers group sessions once per week for a much smaller time commitment. These group sessions focus solely on social and behavioral needs in the context of interactive and collaborative play with same-aged peers and often occur in a community based setting facilitated by the BCBA.
Caregiver Education and Collaboration
All of our programs include Caregiver Education and Collaboration to ensure that your child and your family is healthy, happy, and supported. BCBAs provide hands-on training and support for caregivers to implement ABA strategies that will help your child be successful. Babysitters, teachers, related services providers, grandparents, and extended family are all welcome to join these sessions.
Explore Acceptance and Commitment Training (ACT) Through a Behavior Analytic Lens
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy is a cognitive-behavioral therapy. ACT has also been adapted to create a non-therapy version of the same processes called acceptance and commitment training. This training process is oriented towards the development of mindfulness, acceptance, and valued skills in non-clinical settings. Ask me how ACT can help you and/or your child develop emotional regulation skills.
