Your child with Autism is the light of your life. But that does not mean that things are easy and hassle-free all the time. In fact, many parents of children with ASD struggle with their own emotions, feelings, and disappointments when it comes to raising their child. It does not mean that you do not love your child, but it does mean that things can be difficult! While there are many different types of Autism therapy out there for children with ASD, Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy is widely regarded as the best solution. Described as a scientifically-proven therapy program that uses positive reinforcement to reduce maladaptive behaviors and grow certain skills, ABA therapy is successful in improving a wide range of behaviors and skills, including:
- Improve language & communication skills
- Decreasing maladaptive behaviors
- Improving attention & focus
- Social skills development
- Academic support
- Self care skills development
To boil it down in simple terms, ABA therapy, facilitated by an ABA therapist, is a great option for children with ASD, and here is why:
Improved Parenting
Through ABA therapy and parent training you can learn how to become more aware of your child's behaviors and actions, which can empower you to become actively engaged in your child's development.
Enhanced Life Satisfaction
ABA therapy is designed to create a noticeable long-term impact on your child's life. This impact will follow your child into his/her adult years and can have a significant impact on improving your child's overall life satisfaction rates.
Challenging Behaviour Reduction
Many children with Autism display challenging behaviors that can be disruptive or inappropriate. Through ABA therapy these behaviors can be reduced and your child's ability to relate more positively to his/her surroundings is increased.
