ABA therapy
in Metairie?

Applied Behavior Analysis (also known as ABA) is an innovative and evidence-based therapeutic method utilized in assisting children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) learn how to improve or change specific behaviors. Children undergoing this type of treatment are taught how to break up complicated tasks into small and simple steps that are easier to complete. This method has successfully taught children impacted by ASD how to wait, make friends, communicate their needs, follow instructions, complete tasks and ask for assistance, among many other things.

Intensive ABA therapy services tend to take between one and three years to complete. During this time period, most children make significant gains across multiple skill domains. Focused ABA therapeutic services are spread out over 10-25 hours and target a limited number of skill domains.

Research has proven that this type of therapy is most effective when it is delivered within the home, school or community. This allows for specific skills and behaviors to be addressed within the environment in which they are most likely to be needed.

Children who have communication, adaptive living, behavioral and social skill deficits that significantly impact their daily lives and their abilities to function independently are great candidates for this type of treatment. Since every treatment plan is individualized to your child, they will get to work on the skills most needed in order to succeed in the things you consider most important.
