What is ABA Therapy
Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) is a supportive, step‑by‑step approach to helping individuals on the autism spectrum learn and grow. It’s the gold‑standard therapy for Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) — backed by decades of research and real‑world results.
ABA focuses on understanding how behavior works, how learning happens, and how meaningful progress can be made by breaking big goals into smaller, achievable steps. For some, that means learning to communicate more effectively. For others, it’s about managing transitions, building social skills, or preparing for greater independence.
At its core, ABA is about teaching new skills that make life easier and more fulfilling — and replacing challenging behaviors with positive, functional ones. It’s not a quick fix. It’s a pathway to lasting change
