Presentation Transcript

  1. Primary Objective of ABA Therapy for Children with Autism • Diminishing the symptoms of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) • Improving cognitive abilities and boosting the development of the child • Maximizing the child’s function and independence to help them participate in the community and assimilate better in society www.behaviorpioneers.com

  2. ABA Therapists’ Approach • Assessment of Symptoms: Observe each child’s unique condition and symptoms to determine the treatment goals • Individualization of Programs: Draw up a combination of ABA-based techniques that can suitably address the child’s treatment goals. • Discrete Trial Training (DTT) • Functional Communication Training (FCT) • Natural Environment Training (NET) • Multi-pronged Interventions: Involve families and caregivers in therapy, and encourage parent-mediated interventions www.behaviorpioneers.com

  3. Key Highlights of ABA Therapy • Most evidence-based therapy to treat Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) • Considered the gold-standard in treating children with Autism • Completely customizable therapy • Focuses on tangible and quantifiable progress for reducing interfering behaviors and increasing the consistency of positive behaviors www.behaviorpioneers.com

  4. Factors that Drive Effectiveness of ABA Therapy • Starting ABA therapy at an early age, as soon as the child receives an ASD diagnosis • Committing to 40 hours a week for one-on-one sessions with a certified ABA therapist • (Early intensive interventions and long-term commitment to ABA therapy can potentially help in completely losing the Autism diagnosis) • Active involvement of parents and caregivers in adopting ABA techniques during real-world situations, beyond formal therapy sessions www.behaviorpioneers.com

  5. Discrete Trial Training (DTT) • A structured, time-intensive approach to teaching skills or changing behaviors in children with ASD • ABA therapist breaks down each task into multiple, easy-to-follow steps • The focus is on repetition and incidental teaching to help the child adapt each step until they can complete the task in its entirety • Useful in teaching speech, language skills, writing skills, and self-care tasks, such as grooming, toileting, etc. www.behaviorpioneers.com

  6. Functional Communication Training (FCT) • Aims to replace difficult behaviors with more appropriate responses in children with Autism • Focuses on teaching meaningful and functional communication to help the child respond in a socially-acceptable manner • Is most useful in addressing aggression, self-harm, destruction, non-compliance, and other such challenging behaviors in children with ASD • Involves teaching verbal responses as well as sign language, gestures, or use of pictures or speech generating devices www.behaviorpioneers.com

  7. Natural Environment Training (NET) • NET is about providing ABA therapy in a real-life setting, instead of a formal, clinic-based environment • Focus is on helping the child learn skills in one environment and generalize them for day-to-day situations in their natural environment • During the session, the ABA Behavior therapist: • Identifies the child’s unique motivators • Recreates a natural environment setting • Captures the child’s motivation to teach and generalize skills www.behaviorpioneers.com
