What is ABA?
Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) is a scientifically proven, data focused therapy to support the independence of children and adolescences with Autism Spectrum Disorder. ABA uses one-on-one therapy to promote the development of social skills, communication skills, and behavioral skills. At Milestones ABA, we are committed to meeting each person's individual needs, providing a tailored therapy plan to help your child reach their milestones.
How Can ABA Support Your Family
Daily Living Skills
ABA focuses on improving language and communication skills, while increasing flexibility, concentration, and social skills. ABA uses positive reinforcement-based interventions to support a decrease in problem behaviors.
​
Caregiver Supports
ABA provides caregiver supports from Board Certified Behavior Analysts to help implement intervention plans tailored to their child's specific needs. Parents have the opportunity to learn effective methods to support their child's growth and development.
​
Individualized Care
ABA is a versatile therapy tailored to individual needs, adaptable for each person it serves. It's offered in various settings such as home, school, and community, ensuring accessibility and relevance. Through one-to-one or group sessions, it imparts practical skills vital for daily living.
