Partnering with teachers yields greater success. 

We view teachers as an essential part of your child’s “circle of support.” That’s why we work to assist them in creating the best environment for your child. When the classroom environment is disrupted, it’s difficult for the teacher to pause and work individually with a student.

Our experience demonstrates that behavioral changes made through true internalized learning cannot be rushed. The encouragement of full skill acquisition through shadowing in the classroom is a key part of our treatment plan.  Partnering with the family improves outcomes. Full realization of your child’s capabilities requires a team effort. It’s essential to collaborate and cooperate. As the parents and family, you are the center of our team. We’ll surround you with caring, passionate professionals trained in ABA therapy.  Our emphasis is on providing you with the information you need to make the best decision for you, your child, and the rest of your family. Once the assessment process is complete, our team will prepare an individualized treatment plan to achieve the agreed upon goals for your child.  Though every plan is unique to the child and his/her environment, each plan emphasizes functional skills and behaviors that allow your child to gain independence and achieve success in both the short- and long term. Depending on the age and functional level of your child, we’ll use ABA to address areas such as communication, socialization, self-care, and play, as well as improve the behaviors and habits critical to academic learning.  Working intensively in the classroom and other natural environments, our highly trained and educated clinical team:  Access the child’s skills and any family concerns to determine initial treatment goals Engage the child using discrete trial teaching, which involves breaking down teachable items into small tasks, taught in highly structured ways Record behaviors, along with antecedents and consequences, so that teachers and support staff can learn how to prevent undesirable behaviors and promote effective reinforcement Emphasize continual encouragement and positive reinforcement as primary motivators Draw upon a child’s strengths to make learning simpler, less frustrating, and pleasantly engaging Instruct teachers, support staff, and parents how to apply ABA so that your child’s learning is consistent and ongoing.
