What is ABA Therapy?
First, what is ABA therapy? Applied behavioral analysis (ABA) therapy is a type of intervention used for autism spectrum disorder and, sometimes, other developmental or behavioral health concerns. Every ABA provider practices differently; we take a soft but strong approach, using positive reinforcement and other evidence-based techniques. Common goals of ABA therapy include but aren’t limited to the following.
- School preparedness. We help kids get ready for school in ABA therapy sessions in several ways, promoting academic success by helping kids follow instructions and working on social skills for the classroom.
- Communication. ABA therapy aids verbal and non-verbal communication skills. For example, understanding and making gestures, facial expressions, and responding when someone else speaks. We aim to have all kids verbal within two years of treatment.
- Increased daily life skills. We work on daily life skills, which involve self-care practices like getting dressed, eating, and other everyday tasks (e.g., household tasks).
- Decreasing problematic behaviors. We work on replacing problematic behaviors (e.g., actions and behaviors that could harm the child or someone else) with healthier behaviors.
- Fine and gross motor skills. Often going along with daily life skills, ABA therapy can help kids with motor skills if needed.
Often, ABA also aids emotion regulation and self-esteem. Our providers are friendly and highly experienced, often much more so than they are at other centers in the area. All kids in ABA therapy at our centers get individualized care plans with unique goals, which may change as they make progress in treatment.
Parent Education at ABA Revolution
Parent education is an essential part of your child’s care and success. In addition to your child’s therapy sessions, our programs provide parent education sessions. During these sessions, you’ll meet with one of our parent training professionals online or in person (you get to choose). They will help you implement strategies at home that are consistent with those used in ABA therapy sessions. If you have any specific challenges you’d like to work on, we can support you through them. Our parent training sessions take place once weekly and last for 90 minutes each.
Extra Services at ABA Revolution
ABA Revolution has everything you need for autism care in the Vernon Hills area. Here are some of the extra services at ABA Revolution and how they can help your family.
- Dentists: Going to the dentist can be difficult for kids with autism spectrum disorder for several reasons; we have autism-friendly dentists on-site to make the experience better.
- Barbers: Similar to dentistry, many kids have a tough time getting a haircut due to sensory issues and other factors. ABA Revolution has on-site barbers who are versed in autism and can help.
- Speech therapy: Sometimes, kids benefit most from a combination of ABA therapy and other interventions. Speech therapy may be recommended for kids with autism spectrum disorder alongside ABA at our center.
We offer free tours of all ABA Revolution locations so that you and your child can get a feel for what we have to offer. Our facilities are warm, inviting, and child-friendly.
The Need for ABA Therapy in Vernon Hills
Current statistics show that an estimated one in every 31 kids aged eight has been identified as having autism spectrum disorder (ASD), which is about 3.2 percent of eight-year-old children. While ASD presentation can vary dramatically, and not everyone with a diagnosis gets ABA therapy, ABA is one of the most effective and common forms of support for kids with ASD. Keeping that in mind, this statistic shows the need for ABA therapy in Vernon Hills and elsewhere.
