B.A.S.I.C.S. ABA Therapy, LLC provides
    services to children and adults on and off the
    Autism Spectrum using Applied Behavior
    Analysis (ABA) and other evidence-based
    practices. We have extensive experience
    working with children with Sensory Processing
    Disorder, ADHD, Nonverbal Learning
    Disorder, Autism, Asperger’s, and other similar
    diagnosis. We serve a wide range of children
    with a variety of cognitive functioning levels.
    We have had wonderful success with high-
    functioning, highly verbal children teaching
    social skills, emotional regulation, and
    executive functioning skills. We are also proud
    of our work teaching language and play skills
    to clients who are non-verbal or nearly non-
    verbal. We also focus on reducing problem
    behaviors such as aggression, property
    destruction, and tantrums.

    On-Going Therapeutic Services:

    Program Creation: We create a comprehensive
    program to teach clients new skills and reduce
    problem behavior. This includes a behavior
    plan and usually between 10-20 individual goals
    for skill acquisition. The program is created
    after a parent interview and student
    observation.

    ABA Therapy: We provide in-home ABA
    therapy by well-trained and educated ABA
    therapists. These therapists implement the
    program that is created by the Board
    Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA). Students
    typically receive services 3-5 days a week and
    each session is usually 2.5-3 hours.

    Supervision: ABA therapists are supervised
    frequently by a Board Certified Behavior
    Analyst (BCBA). The BCBA also uses this time
    to observe the child, build a relationship with
    him/her, and problem solve any goals that are
    making slow progress.

    Team Meetings: We hold team meeting for
    most clients to review progress, troubleshoot
    problem behavior, and maintain an open
    dialogue with families.

    Facilitated Playdates: We setup, attend, and
    coach clients during playdates with typical
    peers to help the client practice skills being
    taught in sessions.

    Respite Care: We offer respite care provided
    by a trained ABA therapist and experienced
    nanny to all of our current clients.

    CONSULTING

    Behavior Plans For The Home: We create
    Behavior Intervention Plans for families to use
    at home. This includes a written plan, training,
    and support to implement the plan at home.

    Behavior Plans For The Classroom: We
    create treatment plans for staff to use in the
    classroom to help maintain a student’s behavior.
    This can be student specific or classroom-wide.

    Program Creation: We can create a program
    to teach clients new skills and reduce problem
    behavior. This includes a behavior plan and
    usually between 10-20 individual goals for skill
    acquisition. After this is completed, parents
    can hire a team to implement the program or
    they can implement it themselves.

    Parent and Staff Training: We are available
    to give talks to staff and parents about ABA.
    This can be done individually or in a group
    setting.

    Social Skills Groups: We offer a 12-week
    social skills group teaching Friendship Skills.
    We focus on emotional regulation, recognizing
    social cues, and responding appropriately to
    social cues. We also build self-esteem, target
    cooperation-based play, and focus on basic
    rule following. This is a fun, dynamic class!

    We accept several insurance plans.
