ABA therapy helps to develop new skills, shape and refine previously learned skills, and decrease socially significant problem behaviors.

Each child goes through an in depth assessment conducted by a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) and other clinical team members to determine their current skill set and what skills might need to be improved upon.
