Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
1. What is ABA Therapy?
ABA, or Applied Behavior Analysis, is a scientific approach to understanding how human behavior is learned. It focuses on identifying the factors that influence behavior and using positive techniques to increase desirable behaviors and decrease challenging ones. ABA therapy is highly effective for individuals with autism spectrum disorder, helping them develop crucial skills for communication, social interaction, learning, and daily living activities.
2. How is ABA therapy tailored to my child?
Every child is unique, and so is their therapy plan. At Here on the Spectrum, we begin with a comprehensive assessment to understand your child's specific needs, strengths, challenges, and goals. Based on this assessment, our therapists develop an individualized treatment plan (ITP) that outlines clear, measurable goals and specific strategies designed to be effective for your child. The plan is regularly reviewed and adjusted based on your child's progress and your feedback.
3. What does a typical ABA therapy session involve?
ABA therapy sessions are highly individualized. They may include a variety of activities depending on the goals for the session. These can range from discrete trial training (practicing specific skills like requesting items or following instructions), natural environment teaching (learning skills during everyday activities), play-based learning, social skills groups, or teaching self-management strategies. Sessions are conducted by trained therapists and are designed to be engaging and motivating for the child.
4. How do I know if ABA therapy is right for my child?
If your child is experiencing challenges with communication, social interaction, behavior regulation, or daily living skills, ABA therapy could be beneficial. It is particularly effective for individuals diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder but can also help those with other developmental disabilities or behavioral challenges. We recommend scheduling a consultation with us. During this initial meeting, we can discuss your child's profile, answer your questions, and determine if our services align with your family's needs and goals.
5. Do you accept insurance?
We understand that navigating insurance can be complex. While we cannot bill directly to all insurance providers, we work with families to understand potential coverage options. We can provide detailed invoices that you may submit to your insurance company for potential reimbursement. We recommend contacting our office for specific information regarding insurance coverage and the claims process.
