ABA Therapy Behavior and Care Plans in Scottsdale
A dedicated BCBA (Board Certified Behavior Analyst) and an ABA Therapy professional will be assigned to work specifically with your child. The BCBA will supervise the ABA’s work, collecting vital information from the ABA Therapist’s sessions with your child that will help your child’s individual goals be set. The observations made in the sessions, assessments and one-on-one interactions with your child will be taken into account when designing your child’s personal behavior plan. Applied Behavior Analysis techniques like positive reinforcement and task-based scheduling, will be utilized in the Behavior Plan. The ABA therapist will help your child develop appropriate responses to social prompts your child may come face to face with, and how to adjust in significant social situations. Part of our complete In-Home ABA Therapy in Scottsdale involves the assigned ABA Therapist working closely with your child to implement the behavior and care plan in the comfort of your child’s own home and at school. We prefer the child’s family and caregivers to be involved with the In-home Therapy sessions because it aids in the successful development and growth of your child. Our staff will also connect with the child’s educators, creating a more well-rounded care plan experience and allowing them to be involved by incorporating the care plan into the child’s curriculums. This aids the improvement of problematic behaviors to be more effective, to take place more quickly and for the improvements to be permanent.

Advanced Autism Services in Scottsdale Helps with Behavior Challenges
Applied Behavior Analysis principles and Autism Therapy methods are enacted and leveraged by our professionals to help your child improve any challenging behaviors and habits that could be causing troubles in their social interactions, learning experiences and more. The first thing we do is begin to examine the child’s environment to better understand why and how the behavior happens. We search for and examine any environmental factors that could be to blame for problematic behaviors. We utilize proven methods like positive reinforcements to replace those negative behavior patterns. The data collected from the functional assessments and one-on-one interactions with your child by the ABA Therapist is reviewed by the assigned BCBA and together, they create a custom care plan designed with the individual needs of your child as the central focus. Behavior challenges we work to improve include:
- Self-regulation issues
- Social challenges including running away or hiding
- Aggressive behavior including biting, kicking, throwing items, outbursts and more
- Communication issues such as fragmented speech or a refusal to speak
- Any other behaviors or habits that negatively impact your child’s ability to learn, have healthy social interactions with those around them and their right to the overall quality of life
