Our dedicated team of experienced and qualified therapists are committed to creating a nurturing and engaging therapeutic experience. We understand the journey can be complex, which is why we emphasize understanding the whole child, building rapport, and celebrating small victories along the way.

Q1: What is ABA Therapy?
ABA, or Applied Behavior Analysis, is a scientific approach to understanding how behavior is influenced by the environment. It focuses on identifying the reasons behind specific behaviors and using positive reinforcement to teach new, more adaptive skills while reducing challenging behaviors. ABA therapy is highly effective for individuals with autism spectrum disorder and other developmental disabilities.
Q2: How does ABA Therapy work?
ABA therapy involves a comprehensive assessment to understand the child's current skills and challenges. Based on this assessment, therapists develop an individualized treatment plan with specific goals. Therapists then implement carefully designed interventions and collect data to measure progress. Techniques include positive reinforcement (rewarding desired behaviors), shaping (reinforcing steps towards a goal), and teaching new skills through structured practice. Consistency across settings is key to success.
Q3: At what age can a child start ABA Therapy?
ABA therapy can be beneficial for children from a very young age, often starting as early as 2-3 years old. However, the principles of ABA can be applied effectively to individuals of all ages, including adolescents and adults, to help achieve their personal goals.
Q4: Does Here on the Spectrum accept insurance?
We understand the importance of financial considerations. While we strive to provide the highest quality care, insurance coverage for ABA therapy varies significantly by provider and plan. We work with families to understand their insurance benefits and provide the necessary documentation to maximize potential reimbursement. We recommend contacting your insurance provider directly to understand your specific coverage details.
