Applied Behavior Analysis To Adapt And Grow
Rethink actions and instill healthy responses for more independence.
Positive reinforcement and encouraging change.
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) presents itself in many ways. However, common characteristics include impaired communication and social skills, repetitive behaviors, and limited interests. Friendship Community Care’s Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) services help individuals with ASD minimize the primary limitations and increase helpful behaviors.
What To Expect From An ABA Therapy Session
A therapist will primarily focus on positive reinforcement that provides meaningful rewards for a desired behavior. The ABA program is flexible and can easily adapt to the individual. An initial assessment will identify the negative reactions and ideal behavior to work on for future sessions. Each session will provide life-changing benefits:
- Engage in small activities that build on each other from simple to complex outcomes.
- Learn what triggers negative behavior to create a plan for the appropriate response.
- Understand consequences for behaviors and how to get more positive outcomes.
- Develop social skills that are useful to have quality interactions with others.
- Identify behavior goals to increase attention, focus, memory, and academics.
ABA therapy transforms a person’s ability to interpret their environment and develop positive behaviors for a healthier lifestyle.
Experience true community integration.
