What is ABA?

Applied Behavior Analysis

ABA is the application of behavior principles to everyday situations that will, over time, increase or decrease targeted behaviors. It has been used to help individuals acquire many different skills and decrease maladaptive behaviors.

ABA is the clinical methodology behind all of our treatment programming. We observe, define and analyze behavior to build a treatment plan that promotes positive social behaviors, and parent training is made a part of every plan.

Where we provide care

Home and center-based services

At home

Home Services

We provide services in the home environment, including assessing initial skills, behavioral assessment and program development.

After our staff begins the initial program and specific goals, we train parents, caregivers and parent-hired staff to work with your child at home. We meet with providers to monitor progress, review documentation and make adjustments as necessary.

At our center

Autism Treatment Center

Our Board Certified Behavior Analysts, behavioral specialists and special instructors take an empirical approach. Our center in Iselin was built with your child in mind.

We set goals and work toward them in one-on-one sessions. Under therapist supervision, your child also interacts with children the same age and learns conversation skills, how to make friends and, most importantly, how to have fun!

Groups & programs

Building social skills together

Small groups give children and teens a safe place to practice new skills with peers.

For teens

ASD Teen Group

Led by trained professionals and supervised by Board Certified Behavior Analysts, our teen program focuses on verbal behavior to work on:

  • Social skills
  • Communication skills
  • Building relationships
  • Job readiness
Camp

Social Skills Camp

Direct social skills instruction with immediate opportunities to practice in real-life settings, helping campers generalize their social thinking skills across settings.

Our camp is specifically designed for kids with ASD, and we believe all kids benefit from the lessons taught.

Small groups

Social Skills Groups

Small group therapy for social groups, play dates and other natural environment training activities, including music, arts, sports, movement, yoga, read-alouds and Creative Play, which combines art, theater, music and movement.

For the whole family

Parent Training
