Services

Applied behavior analysis is a form of therapy we provide uniquely to each developmentally disabled patient. Those diagnosed with an Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) benefit most to this evidence-based practice designed to intervene with their behavioral disorders and improve their communication and motor skills.

Patients and parents can choose where their loved ones receive the therapy. Full support at home or guidance to their engagement in the community, we offer you the freedom where to receive our services.

Developmental disabilities are better managed when tackled as early as the onset of symptoms. Once diagnosed with a specific type of disability, make sure your loved ones receive ABA therapy interventions immediately.

We involve the patients’ parents in implementing their family members’ treatment program, offering coaching that can be individual or in a group setting. We acknowledge that most of the patients’ time is spent with their family, so it’s better that they also learn how to improve their loved ones’ challenging behaviors using the patients’ specific treatment program.

Discrete Trial Training or DTT involves a one-on-one approach to patients in a controlled environment. The therapist will provide a prompt, ask for a specific desired behavior, and reward the patient through positive reinforcement. This goes on repeatedly until the patient displays the desired behavior autonomously.

ABA therapy preferably applies the principle of teaching the learners within their natural environment. Through this, patients can develop new skills with the elements of fun and reinforcements during their play activities. Goals are taught directly by inserting “trials” into a fun and natural play

This is somehow similar to the learning principles used in Discrete Trial Training except that the learning opportunity is based on the learners’ interest in an activity or object.

One of the main goals of ABA therapy is to improve the patients’ communication skills and their frequency of interaction through several techniques under ABA principles.

To make sure that patients display targeted behaviors autonomously, we provide supervision to learners for some time within a week. Supervision comes long training new skill sets or overseeing whether the learner retains the previously learned skills or not.

ABA practices are also done using the ABA model of real-time telehealth, also called synchronous telemedicine, where patients and the ABA specialist speak and interact in real-time via video or audio communication.

We provide behavior analytic services in schools that have students with a variety of disabilities and implement teaching strategies founded on ABA principles. We collaborate with parents, teachers, and administrators to help in all aspects of a student’s education.

Simply put, this is determining why a student acts in a certain way. These assessments are used to understand what are the factors behind their behavior challenges. When behaviors that interfere with a student’s education is known, the assessment will then move toward addressing the certain behavior, identify the factors that support it, and determine its purpose.

To create an effective and customized ABA treatment program for the patients, we collaborate with their parents, educators, and other professionals. Overall, each treatment plan is designed for learners to achieve their highest academic potential.

We partner with schools to create supportive, data-driven environments where all students have the opportunity to succeed. Our School Consultation services are tailored to meet the unique needs of educational institutions, whether you’re seeking short-term behavioral support for a specific student or ongoing collaboration to enhance your school-wide behavior systems.

Our experienced team of Board-Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs) works closely with school staff, administrators, and families to assess behavioral needs and implement effective, research-based interventions.

We provide in-home ABA services that meet families where they are—literally and figuratively. This approach allows for personalized support that is embedded in a child’s natural environment, making learning more meaningful and applicable to daily life. Our in-home services focus on developing communication, independence, emotional regulation, and adaptive behavior skills.

Our in-home ABA consultation services bring personalized support directly into your family’s daily life. This approach allows us to work with children and caregivers in familiar, natural settings, where learning is most meaningful. In-home services offer the opportunity to build practical skills and promote behavioral growth where it matters most: at home.
