Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What is ABA Therapy?
ABA, or Applied Behavior Analysis, is a scientific approach to understanding how human behavior is learned. It focuses on identifying the factors that influence behavior and using positive techniques to increase desirable behaviors while decreasing problematic ones. ABA therapy is highly effective for individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and other developmental disabilities, helping them develop crucial skills in areas like communication, social interaction, academics, and daily living activities.
How do I get started with ABA Therapy?
Getting started involves an initial assessment and consultation. We recommend contacting us at (778) 608-2398 or visiting our website https://aba-therapy.ca/ to request an intake form. During the initial consultation, our team will gather information about your child's history, current challenges, and goals. We will then conduct assessments to understand your child's unique needs and develop a personalized treatment plan collaboratively with you.
What does an ABA therapy session involve?
ABA therapy sessions are highly individualized based on the treatment plan. They typically involve structured teaching and practice of specific skills. Our therapists use various evidence-based techniques, such as discrete trial training, natural environment teaching, and positive reinforcement, tailored to the child's age, abilities, and learning style. Sessions aim to be engaging and fun while promoting learning and skill acquisition.
How long does ABA therapy typically last?
The duration of ABA therapy varies significantly depending on the child's age, diagnosis, presenting skills, and specific goals. Many children benefit from intensive therapy (e.g., 20-40 hours per week) during critical developmental periods, which might last several years. However, therapy is also effective for individuals of all ages. The focus shifts from intensive early intervention to maintaining skills and addressing new challenges as the individual grows. Treatment plans are regularly reviewed and adjusted based on progress.
Is ABA therapy covered by insurance?
Coverage for ABA therapy varies widely depending on the insurance provider, plan details, and the child's specific diagnosis. Some extended health benefits, provincial health plans (like MSP in Canada), and private insurance plans may offer partial or full coverage. We recommend contacting your insurance provider directly to understand your plan's coverage for ABA services. Our administrative team can also assist you in understanding potential coverage options and navigating the process.
