Applied Behavior Analysis Services

Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) is the study of understanding behaviors and is widely recognized as an effective therapy for individuals of all ages on the autism spectrum. Through ABA therapy at Lifeworks, individuals can experience meaningful improvements in socially significant areas of their lives, such as communication, daily living skills, social skills, leisure skills, vocational skills, community involvement, and academics. With a large focus on proactive interventions and reinforcement, Lifeworks’ ABA therapy teaches new skills to individuals that help to decrease challenging behaviors and increase positive, socially appropriate behaviors.

ABA Therapy

At Lifeworks, we offer personalized ABA therapy to support your child’s development and help them thrive. Our services include both comprehensive and focused therapy to improve communication, social skills, and behavior. Therapy is led by trained professionals who work one-on-one with your child, and sessions are supervised by a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA). We also partner closely with families and caregivers, providing training and guidance to help you support your child at home and in the community. Whether you prefer in-home therapy, where your child can learn in a familiar setting, or clinic-based sessions that offer a dedicated space for focused learning, we have options that work for your family.

One of the pillars of our ABA approach is teaching in the natural environment. Natural Environment Teaching (NET) helps your child learn though play and everyday moments – so learning becomes fun, natural, and part of their everyday lives. For instance, practicing counting during snack time or using social skills while playing with siblings reinforces what they learn in therapy. This method not only makes the learning process feel more genuine but also empowers children to apply their skills in real-life scenarios.

Lifeworks offers clinic-based services with available timeslots in the morning and afternoon. These services are located at 22201 Fairmount Blvd. Home-based hours are flexible and depend on therapist availability. Both options provide individualized support to help your child develop essential skills in a setting that suits your family’s needs. 

ABA Services at Lifeworks are provided by bachelor’s and master’s level professionals. All clinical oversight and coordination are performed by licensed and certified staff members in accordance with best-practice standards and state regulations.
