Skill Area
Independence
Independence is the goal behind every other goal. Each target is chosen so your child needs us a little less over time.
How ABA Helps
Our approach to independence
“Learning-to-learn” skills
Attention, waiting, following instructions, and staying with a task — the behaviors that make every other skill teachable.
Self-advocacy
Asking for help, requesting a break, saying no safely, and making choices that are genuinely their own.
Prompting & fading
Support is deliberately reduced step by step so success belongs to your child, not to the prompt.
How we measure progress
Session data on attempts, independence level, and success across settings.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is autism?
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a developmental condition that affects how a child communicates, interacts socially, and processes information. Autism is a spectrum, meaning symptoms and abilities vary widely from one child to another.
Who can benefit from ABA therapy?
ABA therapy is most commonly used to support children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), but it can also benefit individuals with other developmental challenges. It is especially effective when started early and tailored to each individual's needs.
What does a typical ABA therapy session look like?
A typical session includes 1:1 instruction with a trained ABA therapist, using play-based or structured tasks to work on goals such as communication, social interaction, behavior regulation, and daily living skills. Sessions may occur at home, in a clinic, or in community settings.
What age range do you serve?
We work with children ages 1–17 years of age.

A formal autism diagnosis is typically made by a licensed pediatrician, psychologist, or developmental specialist. The evaluation may include parent interviews, developmental history, observation of behavior, and standardized tools such as the ADOS-2 (Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule).
