ABA Therapy Program Johns Creek ABA therapy programs are designed to help individuals, typically children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), develop skills and reduce problematic behaviors through structured interventions. These programs are evidence-based and involve breaking down complex skills into smaller steps, using positive reinforcement to encourage desired behaviors, and systematically fading out prompts and supports as the individual learns. Here are some key components and concepts related to ABA therapy programs: Behavioral Assessment: A thorough assessment is conducted to identify the individual's strengths, weaknesses, and areas needing improvement. This assessment helps in designing personalized intervention plans. Functional Behavior Assessment (FBA): This is a specific type of assessment used to determine the function or purpose of a behavior. Understanding why a behavior occurs is crucial for developing effective intervention strategies. Behavioral Goals: Based on the assessment, specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound (SMART) goals are established for the individual. These goals target areas such as communication, social skills, self-care, and academic skills. More Info:
