How We Do ABA
At Something to Say ABA, we use Progressive Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy to help children develop important skills and address challenges. Progressive ABA is a science-backed approach that focuses on how learning happens while still engaging in compassionate and supportive practices.
Core Principles of ABA:
-
Applied: We focus on teaching skills that are important and helpful in your child's everyday life, making a real difference for your family.
-
Behavioral: We look at what your child does – their actions and responses – so we can clearly see how they are learning and growing.
-
Analytic: We carefully track how our teaching methods are working by looking at data, so we know what's helping your child make progress.
-
Technological: We use clear and specific teaching methods that anyone can understand and follow, ensuring consistency in how your child learns.
-
Conceptually Systematic: Our teaching strategies are based on the well-established principles of how learning works, giving us a strong foundation for our approach.
-
Effective: Most importantly, our goal is to use methods that actually work and lead to meaningful improvements in your child's skills and behavior.
Progressive ABA:
Progressive ABA is all about your child's unique needs and making therapy a positive experience. We emphasize:
-
Learning Through Play & Daily Life: We teach your child new skills during fun activities and your regular routines.
-
Following Your Child's Lead: We pay attention to what interests your child and use those moments to teach.
-
Focusing on Real-World Skills: We help your child learn things they can use every day, at home, school, and in the community.
-
Meaningful Encouragement: We use motivators that are directly tied to the activity and what your child enjoys.
-
Working Closely with You: We partner with your family to make sure therapy fits your life and helps your child best.
-
Tailored to Your Child: We create a unique plan based on your child's specific needs and what they're good at.
-
Helping Skills Stick: We focus on making sure your child can use their new skills in different places and with different people.
-
Building Independence: We aim to teach your child skills that help them do more things on their own.
-
Focusing on Happiness & Well-being: We want your child to be happy, confident, and feel included.
-
Tracking Progress Together: We keep a close eye on how your child is doing and adjust our approach as needed.
At Something to Say ABA, we're committed to using progressive, compassionate ABA therapy to help your child reach their full potential. Let's work together to create a brighter future for your family.
