What is ABA Therapy?

Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) is a therapy grounded in the science of learning and behavior. Behavior analysis helps us understand how behavior functions, how it is influenced by the environment, and how learning occurs. ABA therapy applies our knowledge of behavior to tackle real-life situations. Its aim is to promote positive behaviors and diminish harmful ones, which can hinder learning or lead to stigmatization and exclusion from peers.

Parents will drop off their child for an ABA therapy session, but they still are HIGHLY involved in the treatment process. They will have regular consultations with their child’s assigned therapists and be encouraged to continue new learning techniques at home to maximize their effectiveness. Parents who are unable or unwilling to participate in supporting their child’s therapy progress at home are typically not a good fit with Unique Pathways. We have limited spaces available and always want to ensure that they are filled by families who have similar therapy goals in mind for maximizing effectiveness of the child’s treatment.
This will vary based upon your child’s needs and the treatment plan that we develop with you.
