We work closely with parents, caregivers, and educators to ensure consistency and support across all environments. Our goal is to empower children to reach their full potential, build confidence, and navigate the world with greater independence and joy.

ABA (Applied Behavior Analysis) Therapy is a scientific approach that focuses on understanding how behavior is affected by the environment. It uses principles of learning theory to increase positive behaviors (like communication, social skills, and independent living skills) and decrease challenging behaviors. ABA therapy is highly individualized, breaking down skills into smaller, manageable steps and using positive reinforcement to encourage learning and progress.
The process typically begins with an initial assessment or consultation to understand the child's needs, goals, and current skill levels. Based on this assessment, a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) develops a personalized treatment plan outlining specific goals and strategies. A Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) then implements the plan during therapy sessions under the supervision of the BCBA. Regular progress reports and parent training are often part of the process to ensure consistency and celebrate achievements.
Every child is unique, and so is their therapy plan. At Here on the Spectrum, we conduct a thorough assessment to understand your child's specific challenges, strengths, interests, and learning style. The treatment plan is then customized to address your child's individual needs and focuses on goals that are meaningful to them and their family. Sessions are designed to be engaging and relevant, incorporating preferred activities and materials whenever possible.
ABA therapy sessions are structured and goal-oriented. They typically involve a trained RBT working directly with your child. Activities might include discrete trial training (practicing specific skills), natural environment teaching (learning in everyday settings), play-based learning, or data collection. The focus is always on practicing target skills identified in the treatment plan, using positive reinforcement (like praise, tokens, or access to preferred items) when desired behaviors or skills occur. The environment is designed to be supportive and conducive to learning.
