Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is often diagnosed in a young child by their pediatrician or neurologist. The first step may be when parents tell their child’s pediatrician of their concern that the child is not meeting developmental milestones. Sometimes, a doctor expresses concern about the possibility of developmental issues at a child’s routine visit. Generally, an assessment or other form of testing is done to confirm a suspected diagnosis. 

If your child was diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder and your healthcare provider suggested ABA therapy, reach out to Advanced Behavioral Therapy today, so we can help. We’ll guide you through the therapy process and answer all your questions.

孩子越小越好。发育尚早的儿童更容易学习新技能。虽然任何年龄段的人都能从 ABA 疗法中受益，但理想的情况是，一旦孩子被诊断出有问题并建议进行 ABA 治疗，就立即开始 ABA 治疗。

ABA 疗法对所有年龄段和人生阶段的人都有益。我们为 1 至 21 岁的儿童提供服务。虽然我们建议在孩子小的时候就开始治疗，但任何年龄的孩子都能从中受益。研究表明，年龄较大的儿童和青少年从 ABA 疗法中获益匪浅，在生活技能和独立性方面取得了显著进步。 

ABA therapy focuses specifically on your child’s behaviors, social skills, emotional regulation, and communication and daily living skills in a consistent and intensive manner that can be life-altering and lasting. Although speech therapy, OT, and social work focus on the language, motor skills, or mental health of your child, ABA works to improve the entire scope of your child’s daily functioning and overall development. 

When you sign up to have your child receive ABA therapy, we create an individualized, unique plan for your child that focuses on increasing specific desired behaviors and skills, and decreasing unwanted behaviors, in the home, school and/or community setting. ABA generally works best when the child receives services intensively every week, and on average, clients receive 15-30 hours a week, depending on the child’s needs.

The BCBA is the one who assesses your child, creates the treatment plan for your child and ensures that the plan is carried out properly on a consistent basis. The BCBA supervises the therapist as many times as necessary and on a weekly basis to ensure all programs within the therapy process are carried out properly and accurately, so that the best outcomes possible are obtained. The BCBA is an integral part of your child’s care and ABA therapy service. 

当您的孩子掌握了既定目标，不再需要治疗师来维持这些目标时，ABA 治疗就结束了。通常情况下，ABA疗法开始时的疗程次数相当频繁，随着孩子的进步和掌握所需的技能，疗程次数会逐渐减少，直到100%掌握为止。在 "高级行为疗法"，我们努力让客户在其家人对其孩子获得的独立性和技能感到满意时出院。 

Parents and caregivers are able to receive training at 10% of the number of therapy hours their child is approved for. For example, if a child is receiving 20 hours of therapy a week, parents can receive 2 hours of training each week. We suggest taking advantage of that, as our BCBAs are highly trained and offer excellent guidance and techniques for maximizing a child’s progress. You are with your child for many hours outside their therapy sessions, so to the extent you can apply ABA techniques that help your child, you can maximize your child’s progress.
