Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) Services
Applied Behavior Analysis
Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) is a systematic process to improve socially significant behavior. Growing Minds staff members work closely with parents and educators to develop customized ABA therapy programs and provides training and supervision necessary for high-quality, consistent teaching and behavioral intervention.
ABA programs are for clients who need intensive support. All programs are data based, designed for individual need, and monitored closely to best benefit your child. GMLC also offers a consultative program for families who prefer less intensive services and more consultative supports.
