Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy is a science-based approach to understanding and improving behavior. It focuses on teaching meaningful skills and reducing challenging behaviors by analyzing why behaviors occur and how they can be influenced through positive reinforcement and other strategies. ABA therapy is highly individualized, targeting areas like communication, social skills, daily living skills, and emotional regulation. For children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and other developmental disorders, ABA provides structured, evidence-based interventions designed to foster independence and enhance quality of life. At its core, ABA empowers children and families by breaking goals into manageable steps and celebrating progress every step of the way.

Our ABA Approach

At ABA Insights Consulting we tailor our approach to meet the unique needs of each child with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and other developmental disorders. Our behavior analysts are trained in a diverse range of evidence-based modalities to ensure personalized, effective care.

–Verbal Behavior Approaches (VB-MAPP, PEAK)
These methods focus on teaching communication and language skills by understanding the function of a child’s verbal behavior. Through systematic assessment and targeted interventions, verbal behavior approaches help children develop essential communication abilities, from requesting needs to holding conversations.

–Naturalistic Developmental Behavioral Interventions (NDBI)
Combining developmental science and ABA principles, NDBI techniques like JASPER and the Early Start Denver Model use play and everyday interactions to teach critical skills. This approach promotes learning in natural settings, enhancing social communication and adaptive behaviors in ways that feel engaging and meaningful to the child.

–Acceptance and Commitment Training (ACT)
Rooted in mindfulness and behavior analysis, ACT helps individuals and their families navigate challenging thoughts and emotions while focusing on actions that align with their values. This approach is particularly effective for reducing stress and building resilience in both parents and children.

–Skills-Based Treatment (SBT)
SBT prioritizes teaching functional communication, problem-solving, and self-regulation to address challenging behaviors. Through a compassionate, individualized approach, children learn to replace problematic behaviors with adaptive, socially significant skills, fostering independence and success across settings.
