Applied Behavior Analysis, or ABA, is an evidence-based approach that focuses on understanding behavior and teaching meaningful skills. ABA therapy helps individuals improve communication, social skills, daily living skills, and emotional regulation while reducing behaviors that interfere with learning and independence.

Sessions are individualized and tailored to each client’s needs. Therapy may include play-based learning, structured teaching, natural environment teaching, and real-life skill practice. Sessions can take place in the home, school, community, or clinic setting, depending on the treatment plan.
