Functional and Curricular Assessments​ / Treatment Plan Development
Sometimes, undesirable/inappropriate behaviors occur in excess. Before developing any treatment plan, we must be able to understand the function of an individual’s behavior. What is your loved one trying to tell you? What learning history has led to these patterns of behavior? Once we are able to analyze the function of the behavior(s), we will then be able to treat them. The Functional Behavior Assessment (FBA), used as part of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), is designed to help us uncover the function of behavioral excesses which then guides the development and selection of appropriate treatment for reduction of the individual's problem behaviors.
Sometimes, desired/appropriate behaviors (or skills) need to be learned or practiced in different ways. Curriculum Assessment and Skill Acquisition Programming are used to build programming based on each individual learner’s needs and increase behavioral deficits. Our curriculum is based on standardized tools and individualized to target skill areas in the following: Communication, Academic, Pre academic, Daily Living, Vocational, Recreational/Leisure, Social, Visual Performance, and Behavioral. Data is collected and analyzed daily on each individual program to evaluate success.
Parent Training and Coaching
ABA Parent Training is a vital aspect to our ABA therapy services. Skilled, involved parents are essential for maximizing a child's outcomes. Research shows that parents can learn ABA principles to effectively shape behaviors in their children, as well as contribute to their development. Behavioral Skills Training (BST) is a method used to instruct staff, parents/caregivers, and anyone who works with learners. BST is a combination of both performance and competency with a particular skill, or set of skills. The four steps of BST include instruction, modeling, rehearsal and feedback to effectively train and coach parents.
