Applied Behavior Analysis
What is ABA Therapy?
Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) uses research-based strategies to encourage positive behaviors and discourage negative behaviors. ABA is best known for its success in treating individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and other developmental disabilities (e.g., Down Syndrome, intellectual disabilities). Treatment is effective across an individual's lifespan (i.e., childhood, adolescence, adulthood).

When your child becomes a part of our Partners in Autism family, they will have an Individualized Treatment Plan (ITP) written by one of our qualified and experienced Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBA's). Your child's progress is tracked and measured by the Behavior Analyst so that their instructor is able to respond in real time to the success of the selected strategies. The focus of these individualized programs will be to teach your child functional skills to improve their overall quality of life.
These skills may include:
- Daily Living
- Social
- Communication
- Self-Help
- Play
- Self-Management

In-clinic your child will receive full-time or part-time ABA therapy from one of our Registered Behavior Technicians (RBTs) in a personalized room. They will also enjoy regular opportunities for social interaction in our gross motor rooms, dining areas, living rooms, or visiting a friend's room. Clients will enjoy a variety of activities throughout the day, such as swinging, taking a bike ride, or going for a walk to visit their friends. View more of our facility here!
In-home therapy may be provided by our behavior therapists throughout most of Indiana when appropriate. When your child receives therapy at home, they will be receiving the same level of care that they would receive at one of our clinics, including an Individualized Treatment Plan designed by one of our Board Certified Behavior Analysts with specific, functional, skill improvement goals.
