The therapies we provide are delivered in person and these are: Applied Behavior Analysis, Speech Therapy & Occupational Therapy. If your child needs an assessment or intervention, please visit our centers nearby.

The methods we use are child centric, in order to teach them behaviors & skills, we try to understand them and deliver the therapy in a kind & compassionate manner. Creating a friendly environment where children can grow at their own pace. We also provide guidance & training to parents, so they can independently manage their child’s behaviors.

What is Applied Behavior Analysis?

Applied Behavior Analysis or ABA is a therapy given to children who engage in challenging behavior or have delays in reaching their developmental milestones. The therapy is evidence-based and proven to work and can be modified as per child’s specific needs & interests. It’s delivered in one-on-one sessions.

What problem does ABA solve?

We need to understand that children don’t engage in challenging behaviors deliberately. There are certain skills missing in the child which helps him to communicate or cope with the situation. The children who have developmental delays in the areas of language & speech, social skills, imitation skills, play skills, etc, problem behavior becomes their only channel to express their unmet needs because they only rely on behaviors which were previously reinforced. ABA looks after these particular areas of growth. It teaches the child corrective behavior as well as teaches them daily living skills. Developmentally, every child is different, hence the therapy is designed catering to his/her specific needs.

ABA THERAPY HELPS IN IMPROVING SKILLS

  • Teaches daily living skills.
  • Improves language & communication.
  • Increases play skills and helps the child socialize.
  • Cognitive development.
  • Strengthening visual perceptual skills.
  • Reduces problem behaviors.
  • Boosts academic skills.

ABA Is Evidence Based!

The American Psychological Association (APA) considers Applied Behavior Analysis as an evidence-based practice. ABA is the only therapy that receives reimbursement by insurance companies in the United States for pediatric behavioral disorders. Apart from the USA, it is the standard of care in Canada, Australia and the Middle East. Multiple studies on the effectiveness of ABA have shown significant improvements in daily living skills, increase in communication & language, play skills, socialization, and growth in academic skills among children.

ABA involves parents equally

The biggest benefit of Applied Behavior Analysis is that parents can also take training to manage their child’s behavior. Whatever skills that are taught to the child in a center; parents can implement those practices at home. If parents face any difficulty, they can consult their behavior analyst or supervisor in a bi-weekly session.
