Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA)

Applied Behavior Analysis uses the principles of behavior and positive reinforcement to increase socially significant behavior and decrease undesirable behavior.

Areas we might focus on in ABA include:

  • Increasing language and communication skills

  • Improving social skills

  • Increasing engagement in non-preferred activities

  • Decreasing problem behavior through positive reinforcement

Comprehensive (20-40 hours/week):

  • For individuals who experience significant behavior challenges and/or present with skill deficits that are impeding their quality of life. We provide individualized comprehensive behavior intervention programming.

  • Focus ABA Services (20 or fewer hours/week)

Physical therapy treatment plans at Pediatric Therapy, Inc. follow a medical-scientific model.

ABA is adapted to meet the needs of each individual child by developing a client specific treatment plan. ABA can be utilized across a variety of different settings and will be implemented one-to-one with a client and therapist in both the home & clinic settings.
