About ABA Therapy

Applied behavior analysis therapy (aba)

Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) is a science dedicated to the knowledge and improvement of human behavior that allows us to discover the reason behind why behaviors occur and environmental variables that influence it. Once the function of the behavior is known, it can be modified and replaced with socially appropriate behaviors.

• ABA therapy programs can contribute to a decrease in inappropriate and harmful behaviors, the development of language and communication skills, and encourage independence. The goal is for intensive and comprehensive intervention which can be effective across a child's lifespan.

• ABA therapy is dedicated to applying techniques and principles in order to achieve positive and significant change in children’s behavior and abilities.

• Early intervention drastically improves ABA therapy effectiveness, in turn achieving excellent results and promotes a better quality of life for children.

• Our goal is to help children in the areas of language and communication along with developing motor, social, academic and play skills which all come together to maximize their independence.
