Functional Behavior Assessments & Skills Assessments
Functional Behavior Assessments can be completed using direct observation, and family/ caregiver interviews to better understand what your child is trying to communicate through their behavior. This helps us understand what replacement skills your child will learn in order to more effectively and efficiently communicate their wants and needs, and become more successful with their social routines.
Skills Assessments are completed in addition to better understand your child’s strengths and weaknesses, and to determine the learning style that will be most effective for your child. Results of assessments are then discussed with your family to ensure that all of your child’s needs are met.
Direct 1:1 ABA Therapy
Direct Therapy provided by a qualified technician that receives training and supervision by a Board Certified Behavior Analyst in your child’s specific needs in the home, community (i.e. daycare, playdates) and school environments to ensure your child acquires their necessary skills in every environment.
