Our Promise

Compassion

We believe that compassion is the key to effective therapy. First and foremost, we understand that every person's experience and needs are unique. Our first steps are always to develop an environment where our clients feel happy, relaxed, and safe before we delve into the therapeutic process.

Collaboration

Applied Behavior Analysis is a proven and effective treatment option, but it isn't the only one that can lead to success. We want to be a part of your team. That means working with doctors, teachers, other therapeutic fields, parents, and the individual receiving services themselves in order to produce the best outcome. No one field has all the answers, but together we can achieve a greater quality of life for those we support.

Consent

Informed consent is an ongoing process. That means every step of the way, from assessment to plan to development to implementation, we want to make sure our process is understood and our plan is agreeable. Legal guardians can opt out at any point in the process and request a revised plan.

Equally important to consent (but doesn't start with a C) is assent. It is important to us that the individual receiving services wants to be involved in the process. Only in circumstances where behaviors are severe and dangerous will we consider providing therapy without assent. In such circumstances, we commit to holding a human rights roundtable consisting of equal parts parents, ABA professionals, and representatives of the Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities community to determine if treatment is necessary despite withdrawal of assent.

Our Process

Step 1

Free Consultation

Schedule a free 30 minute telehealth appointment with one of our board certified behavior analysts. During this meeting, we’ll take the time to meet you and your child, get an idea of what you’re looking for in therapy, and answer any questions you might have.

Step 2

Assessment

Once cleared with your insurance, a behavior analyst will come out to your home to conduct assessments that are used to determine your child’s unique strengths and needs. The assessments last 2-4 hours.

Step 3

Plan Development

Following the assessment, our behavior analyst will use the results to develop a plan to teach new skills and address any potential challenging behavior. The behavior analyst will consult with you and explain their plan, receive your feedback, and then submit a final plan for insurance approval.

Step 4

Treatment

Your insurance company will receive a copy of the plan and a number of hours will be allocated for treatment, parent training, and supervision. A trained behavior technician will come to your home to implement the plan and our behavior analyst will periodically supervise the plan’s implementation to ensure it is effective. We will work with you to build a schedule that works best for you and your family.

Common Questions

Applied Behavior Analysis is the science of human behavior. We collect data on behavior and use that data to develop plans that teach new skills.

A behavior technician will come to your home to implement the plan of care. For the first week or two, the technician will focus their efforts on getting to know your child and build a positive relationship with them. During this time, the technician will allow your child to take the lead and co-play with their favorite toys and activities. This is an essential part of the process! After, you can expect the technician to challenge your child to learn new skills in fun and engaging ways. The technician will balance the session with a combination of learning opportunities with opportunities to earn your child’s favorite things and activities, a process called reinforcement.

If you or your child’s doctor have concerns about your child’s development, ABA may be a good option for them. ABA is particularly effective at addressing skill deficits as well as challenging behaviors such as self injury, aggression, and property destruction.

In order to receive authorization from your insurance provider, you will need to have a script for ABA services. This is most often provided by a developmental pediatrician, which your usual pediatrician can recommend you to should you have concerns about your child’s development.
