SaundraBishop@basicsabatherapy.com www.basicsabatherapy.com 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.
