At Birch Behavior, ABA therapy is provided directly by a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA). This means our BCBA is actively involved in every stage of care, including comprehensive assessments, individualized treatment planning, direct therapy sessions, progress monitoring, caregiver collaboration, and ongoing clinical decision-making.

During the initial ABA assessment, we take time to learn about your child's strengths, communication, daily routines, learning needs, and areas where additional support may be helpful. The process may include caregiver interviews, direct observations, review of relevant information, and appropriate assessment tools. Families have opportunities to share their priorities, concerns, and goals throughout the assessment.

At Birch Behavior, parents and caregivers are valued partners in their child's ABA therapy. We encourage open communication, shared decision-making, and ongoing collaboration to ensure family perspectives and priorities are reflected throughout the process. Families may participate by sharing observations, discussing progress, asking questions, and exploring practical ways to support their child during everyday activities.

ABA therapy session frequency and duration are based on each child's individual needs, family routines, and clinical recommendations. There is no one-size-fits-all schedule. We collaborate with families to establish a practical schedule that supports meaningful learning while considering the child's well-being, daily activities, and availability. Session schedules may be adjusted as needs and circumstances change.

Our child-centered ABA therapy approach begins with building trust, understanding each child's strengths, interests, emotional needs, and individual learning style. We consider everyday challenges, family routines, and environmental factors when developing individualized support. Through play, natural interactions, and meaningful learning opportunities, we prioritize each child's communication preferences, choices, dignity, and autonomy.

At Birch Behavior, we use individualized, child-centered ABA therapy that incorporates play-based, naturalistic, and structured teaching methods. These may include Early Start Denver Model (ESDM)-informed strategies, Pivotal Response Treatment (PRT), Natural Environment Teaching (NET), and structured teaching when appropriate. We adapt our teaching methods based on each child's strengths, interests, preferences, and progress. Our goal is to make learning joyful, engaging, and meaningful while supporting communication, independence, and everyday life.
