Early Intervention Services

What happens in ABA treatment?

  • The first steps in treatment involve a complete assessment of your child’s strengths and needs.
  • A treatment plan is developed with specific goals selected to address areas of need. Parental input and participation is key to the success of treatment.
  • Treatment generally occurs one-on-one or in small groups with a trained behavior technician (Registered Behavior Analysis Interventionist) and occurs several hours per week (usually between 10-25 hours).
  • Interventionists teach multiple skills per session and take data on everything they do with your child to monitor the effectiveness of treatment.
  • All treatment is supervised by a Licensed and Board Certified Behavior Analyst.
