WHAT IS ABA THERAPY?

Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA) is a form of therapy that is governed by the Science of behaviour and learning. ABA focuses on making meaningful changes to an individual's behaviour. ABA is a widely accepted method for aiding individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder and one that is considered to be highly successful. 

​

The use of positive reinforcement is one of the main tools of ABA. When a client's behaviour is followed by something that is valued (a reward), a person is more likely to repeat that behaviour. Over time, this encourages positive behaviour change. With positive reinforcement, compassion and commitment, we begin to see a real meaningful change!
