Frequently Asked Questions
Our caring team compiled answers to frequently asked questions regarding ABA therapy to help you better understand the diagnosis and treatment process
What is ABA Therapy?
Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy is a scientifically validated approach for treating those diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). ABA is the most widely used intervention endorsed by the American Academy of Pediatrics, National Academies of Science, and the Surgeon General as the best practice for individuals with autism. ABA therapy at Behavioral Framework aims to increase behaviors and skills that promote learning and independence. ABA can improve language, communication, social, and adaptive skills such as toilet training, dressing, feeding, and much more. We work closely with your child and family while collaborating with teachers and other therapists to provide the most holistic treatment model.
ABA is the only research-supported treatment for improving the behavior of children with autism. The No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 identified Applied Behavior Analysis as the only scientific-based practice that meets the qualifications of reliably yielding positive results when applied in the approved manner. Plus, ABA is the only therapy for autism endorsed by the U.S. Surgeon General. According to The National Academic Press to achieve the best results, ABA therapy should begin as soon as the diagnosis is received. Talk to your child’s doctors about ABA therapy.
