ABA Therapy is a form of educational therapy designed to help kids build essential skills, and to reduce problem behaviors.
It’s most commonly utilized in the treatment of skill deficits for which children with Autism are eligible to receive services. It involves breaking down complex skills into smaller, more manageable steps and utilizing rewards to increase the frequency of the occurrence of newly acquired skills.

ABA therapy is evidence-based and has been shown to be effective in improving communication, social skills, self-care, and academic skills in individuals with ASD. We utilize evidence-based methods for teaching kids with Autism, including both naturalistic and discrete trail training.
Each child comes to Step Up ABA with a different set of skills
The assessment process allows us to determine where each child is at
Skills are taught based on prior identification of underlying skills.
At Step Up ABA, we help address problem behavior in a variety of ways. First we work to teach underlying skills that may be leading to problem behaviors. For instance, if a child is struggling to communicate they may engage in problem behaviors to have their needs met. We believe the best approach is to teach alternative replacement behaviors first such as communication skills. Additionally, we may conduct a functional assessment of problem behavior that helps us identify the reason for the child’s maladaptive behavior. This helps us develop an intervention that can best meet your child’s needs.
One of the way we commit to provide the best possible treatment is through care coordination with other providers. This involves working closely with other professionals, such as pediatricians, psychologists, and speech therapists to ensure our clients achieve the best possible outcomes.
This collaborative approach is helpful in getting buy in and feedback from other professional and parents alike.
