Frequently Asked Questions About (Insurance Provider) Coverage
ABA is an acronym for Applied Behavior Analysis. It is a science data-based therapy that involves a step by step application: assessment, evaluation, and implementation of a personalized plan that builds on strengths and addresses weaknesses to refine behavior and forward achievement in life.
Autism has no cure, hence therapy cannot treat it. However, it can address the symptoms of autism, by working with children on the spectrum to change behavior for the better.
ABA therapy relies on prompting and reinforcement to build a child’s social strengths and mitigate his or her maladaptive behaviors. At the same time, the process incorporates progress-monitoring and plan-restructuring if necessary to add techniques that will further advance individual goals.
A specialist certified as a BCBA is usually the professional that assigns the ABA therapist to an individual case and then supervises progress and implements possible changes to the program.
It is best to start the treatment as young as two years of age so that he or she will be properly prepared for school. Most children begin between 2 and 6 years of age but older children and even young adults can benefit from the treatment.
We sum it up in one word: passion. We’re fired up about our therapy plan because we really care – and because we are devoted to transforming the standard perspective on an oft ‘robotic’ system and about kids on the autistic spectrum. Based on a philosophy that stresses using challenges as stepping stones to achievement, we help kids and their families learn lasting techniques to individual growth, development and a thriving future.
We currently are centered in the Athens, Alpharetta, and Suwanee areas, including Milton, Roswell, Duluth, Johns Creek, Oconee and Monroe. Our vision of ultimate growth foresees service to the entire Georgia community.
