Frequently Asked Questions
ABA (Applied Behavior Analysis) is a science-based approach that uses positive reinforcement
and data-driven strategies to help individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder develop new skills
and reduce challenging behaviors.
ABA therapy is primarily used to support children with autism, but it can also help individuals of
various ages and developmental levels who need assistance with behavior, communication,
social skills, or daily living tasks.
A trained professional observes the individual’s behavior, identifies goals, and designs a
personalized treatment plan. Desired behaviors are rewarded (reinforced), and progress is
measured through ongoing data collection to adjust interventions as needed.
ABA therapy can be provided in a variety of settings, such as in the home, at a clinic, or in a
school environment—wherever it’s most practical and beneficial for the individual.
Session length varies based on the child’s individual needs, attention span, and treatment goals.
Some sessions may last a few hours per day, several days per week, while others might be
shorter or less frequent.
ABA providers typically include Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs), Board Certified
Assistant Behavior Analysts (BCaBAs), and Registered Behavior Technicians (RBTs). They
receive specialized training to deliver effective, evidence-based therapy.
Therapists collect data throughout each session to track changes in behavior and skill acquisition.
This data is analyzed regularly to see what’s working and to modify the treatment plan when
necessary.
Each child’s needs differ. Some may benefit from ongoing therapy to address changing goals,
while others may need less frequent sessions or eventually graduate from therapy altogether.
Progress is closely monitored, and treatment is adjusted over time.
Coverage varies depending on your insurance provider and plan. Many insurers now offer
coverage for ABA therapy for children diagnosed with autism. It’s best to contact your insurance
company or our team for details on eligibility and benefits.
Family involvement is crucial. Caregivers can learn specific techniques to support progress
outside therapy sessions. Ongoing communication with the ABA team ensures everyone is
aligned on goals and strategies.
