Our In-Home ABA Therapy resources are available to our clients and their families. All our methods and procedures stem from Applied Behavior Analysis, backed up by the researched methods of the learning theory. We start by first getting to know the child and running functional assessments to understand what the child’s strengths are, where they need work and any behavioral patterns that might be important to note. The environmental factors in the child’s natural spaces that could be triggers for negative behavior are identified. The work we do focuses on improving learning skills, communication skills, day-to-day life skills, hygiene and more. We encourage positive reactions and habits that help improve the child’s quality of life and social interactions. The ABA therapist assigned to your child will also work with the parents, family and any in-home caretakers to help build a strong support system around the child that understands the principles of Applied Behavior Analysis. We empower the caretakers and family by providing ABA Therapy training for the families in the Tucson area so they can contribute to the child’s development and further support their growth.

ABA Therapy Behavior and Care Plans in Tucson
An ABA Therapy professional and a dedicated BCBA will be assigned to work with your child individually. The BCBA oversees the ABA’s work, dissecting vital information garnered from the ABA Therapist’s sessions with your child that will help set the direction for your child’s goals and care plan. The ABA Therapist will administer assessments and one-on-one interactions that provide valuable insight to the BCBA. This helps in designing your child’s personal behavior plan. Applied Behavior Analysis techniques like positive reinforcement and task-based scheduling are utilized in the child’s Behavior Plan. The ABA Therapist will work towards establishing appropriate responses to social prompts your child may come face to face with, and teach your child how to adjust in significant social situations. Your child’s In-Home ABA Therapy in Tucson takes place in the comfort of the child’s own home with a dedicated therapist ensuring that the progress made in the sessions is preserved, supported and built upon by helping educate and train the family and other caregivers. We want families to be involved with the In-home Therapy sessions so we can foment developmental success for the long term. Our staff can also work with the child’s educators, another big part of a child’s natural environments, creating a more immersive ABA Therapy experience and integrating the care plan into the child’s curriculum. This helps correct problematic behaviors faster and helps the principles and skills learned to be ingrained more permanently.

Research-backed methods rooted in the learning theory, such as positive reinforcements, are used to replace any negative behavior patterns with positive ones. Functional assessments, evaluations and one-on-one interactions with your child by the ABA Therapist provide valuable information to your assigned BCBA.
