Treatment Philosophy
At Basics ABA Therapy, we are committed to providing behavior analytic services in a manner that is trauma-formed and kind, by providing training and direct therapy while ensuring we are always innovative, ethical, and excellent. Mission statement
Basics ABA Therapy is committed to providing industry leading behavior analytic services to children with and without dis
abilities while providing training and direct therapy with a focus on trauma-informed care. We wish to challenge traditional models of behavioral therapy and ABA therapy by empowering providers and parents to look at behavior both functionally and kindly. We know Black Lives Matter, Q***r Lives Matter, and Autistic Voices Matter and will also strive to honor those truths. Beliefs
ABA works under the assumption that people engage in behavior due to the consequence of that behavior. Typically, behaviors occur because, in the past, they have been reinforced by escape, attention, access to an object, or a self-stimulatory effect. Traditional ABA may look at those consequences as a way to control behavior, we try to look at those consequences as a way to help the client self advocate and get a need met. Our Core Beliefs
1. We presume competence.
2. Self advocacy skills are imperative for successful adults.
3. Students should be allowed to say no, ask for breaks, and decline touch.
4. Students are the clients.
5. Parents and other therapists are our partners.
6. Data is very important. It is graphed daily and parents have access.
7. Natural Environment Teaching is usually the best way to learn.
8. It is important to listen to Autistic voices.
9. We honor and celebrate neurodivergence
