What is ABA?
ABA therapy is the only evidence-based treatment for individuals with autism that focuses on understanding behavior. Through positive reinforcement and data-driven programming, our Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs) and Registered Behavior Technicians (RBTs) equip children with the skills they need to overcome challenges and achieve meaningful progress in areas such as communication, social skills, academic performance, and daily living. Each person responds differently to therapy techniques, which is why we customize our approach.
We bring personalized ABA therapy to the comfort of your home, offering a secure and familiar environment for your child.
This setting helps them generalize skills more effectively and lets you see their progress firsthand. In-home therapy also involves family members, fostering a supportive and inclusive atmosphere. Our experienced therapists work closely with your family to develop individualized treatment plans, guiding you through techniques to reinforce learning and empowering your entire family to play an active role in your child's growth and development.

Behavior Therapy for Kids with Autism
Behavior therapy for kids with autism looks different for every child because every child with autism is unique! Our ABA therapists discover what motivates your child and how they learn best.
At April ABA, we understand that for some kids, therapy focuses on communication tools to replace challenging behaviors. For others, we address sensory sensitivities triggering meltdowns or anxiety. Behavior therapy isn't about forcing children to "act normal" - it's about giving them skills to navigate a world that isn't always designed for their needs. As therapy progresses, children become happier and more confident because gaining skills to interact successfully is empowering!

Frequently Asked Questions
What does an ABA therapist do?
An ABA therapist uses evidence-based techniques to help children with autism learn new skills and reduce challenging behaviors. They create individualized treatment plans, collect data to measure progress, and work closely with families to ensure skills transfer to everyday life.
What is an example of ABA therapy?
ABA therapy might include breaking down complex skills like brushing teeth into small, manageable steps and using positive reinforcement to encourage progress. For a child struggling with communication, an ABA therapist might teach alternatives to challenging behaviors, such as using picture cards or simple signs to express needs.
How effective is ABA therapy for autism?
Research shows ABA therapy is highly effective for many children with autism. Studies report improvements in communication, social skills, learning readiness, and reduction in challenging behaviors. The effectiveness depends on factors like intensity of therapy, individual needs, and family involvement.
At what age is ABA therapy most effective?
While research shows that starting ABA therapy before age 5 often yields the best outcomes, children of any age can benefit from ABA therapy. Early intervention takes advantage of young children's brain plasticity, but older children and even adults can make meaningful progress with the right program.
How long should a child stay in ABA therapy?
The duration of ABA therapy varies based on individual needs, goals, and progress. Some children benefit from 1-3 years of therapy, while others may need longer-term support. Your ABA therapist will regularly evaluate progress and make recommendations based on your child's development.
