We use the science of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) and the philosophy of Positive Behavior Supports (PBS) to make meaningful behavior change. We honor neurodiversity and specialize in supporting people who are neurodivergent, specifically those diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), and other neurological, intellectual, or developmental conditions.  

We focus on the unique needs of the individual and their circumstances to provide services that improve skills and behaviors that are important to areas of everyday life.  Our services can help people with language, social interaction, wellness habits, self care, toileting, eating, sleeping, education, employment, self-regulations, intimate relationships, independent living, to name just a few.

ABA THERAPY

ABA Therapy is a more intensive therapy that is provided through one-on-one individual therapy sessions and meetings with caregivers.  Treatment depends on the specific needs of the individual, and each treatment program is tailored to what will be most effective for the individual.

 

A minimum of 9 hours of therapy is required per week to maximize outcomes but up to 40 hours per week has been found to be most effective for some individuals. 

ABA Therapy can be effective for people with a variety of diagnosis.  In 2014, Utah law mandated that insurance companies cover ABA Therapy as a treatment for people diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder. If you need help getting a Autism Spectrum Diagnosis, refer to this Autism Evaluation Provider List

FAMILY CONSULTATION

 Family involvement is at the heart of our family-centered ABA approach, which tailors services to meet the unique needs of each family, helping to improve critical skills and behaviors that impact daily life. Our approach includes Parent Training embedded with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), a research-backed, mindfulness-based therapeutic method that encourages parents to practice acceptance, develop mindfulness, and commit to meaningful behavior change. By providing parents with practical skills and strategies, we aim to empower them to better support their children. We specialize in working with families facing various behavioral challenges, including Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD), anxiety, trauma, and social barriers. Our program is designed to help families address these concerns in a supportive and collaborative environment.
