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 the relationship between a person's environment and their behavior. ABA therapy uses principles of behavior analysis to bring about meaningful and positive changes in a child's behavior, skills, and overall quality of life. It is highly individualized and focuses on increasing helpful behaviors (like communication, social interaction, and self-care) while decreasing challenging behaviors.
2. What ages do you work with?
We primarily work with children from toddlers (typically 2-3 years old) up to adolescents (around 18 years old). Our programs are tailored to the developmental level and specific needs of each child within this age range.
3. How do I know if ABA therapy is right for my child?
If your child is struggling with communication, social interaction, learning new skills, or exhibiting challenging behaviors that impact their daily life or your family's well-being, ABA therapy could be beneficial. It is particularly effective for children diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) or other developmental disabilities. We recommend scheduling a consultation to discuss your child's specific needs and determine if our services align with your goals.
4. How long does ABA therapy typically last?
The duration of ABA therapy varies significantly depending on the child's age, diagnosis, specific goals, and the complexity of needs. Many children benefit from intensive therapy (e.g., 20-40 hours per week) for several years, often showing significant progress within the first 1-2 years. However, therapy is a long-term process focused on continuous skill development and generalization. Some children may require ongoing support, while others may reach their goals more quickly. We work with families to create a plan that is sustainable and appropriate for their unique situation.
5. Do you accept insurance?
We strive to be accessible and work with various insurance plans, including those that offer partial or full coverage for ABA therapy services. We can assist you in understanding your insurance benefits, verifying coverage, and navigating the claims process. Please contact our office directly at (778) 608-2398 to discuss your specific insurance coverage and explore financial options available to you.
