Q1: What is ABA Therapy?
A: Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) is a scientific approach to understanding how behavior is influenced by the environment. It focuses on improving specific behaviors, such as social skills, communication abilities, reading, and adaptive learning skills. ABA therapy uses positive reinforcement to encourage desired behaviors and reduce problematic ones, always tailored to the individual child's needs and goals.
Q2: How does ABA Therapy work?
A: ABA therapy begins with a comprehensive assessment to understand the child's current skills and challenges. Based on this assessment, individualized treatment plans are created, outlining specific goals and strategies. Therapists then implement interventions using techniques like positive reinforcement, prompting, shaping, and data collection to track progress and adjust strategies as needed. The focus is always on teaching skills that are meaningful and functional for the child.
Q3: What ages do you work with?
A: We primarily work with children and adolescents, typically from early intervention age (around 2-3 years old) up to teenagers and young adults transitioning to more independent settings. Our programs are designed to meet the developmental needs of this age range.
Q4: How long does ABA therapy typically last?
A: The duration of ABA therapy varies significantly depending on the child's specific needs, goals, and progress. Some children may show progress within a few months, while others may require years of consistent therapy. Treatment plans are regularly reviewed and adjusted based on progress, and goals are broken down into smaller, manageable steps to celebrate achievements along the way.
