Applied Behavioral Analysis
with Heredia Therapy Group
Applied
Behavioral Analysis Therapy
Our BCBA therapists provide one-to-one services, meaning your child gets the full, undivided support of an expert. Additionally, we offer family training, which helps parents and siblings learn how ABA works and understand how they can support their loved ones.
what is Applied Behavioral Analysis (ABA) therapy?
ABA is a structured therapy method and gold-standard treatment option for addressing behavioral issues, learning difficulties related to autism and other neurodevelopmental differences, and more. ABA therapy can only be provided by an expertly trained clinician known as a BCBA, or Board-Certified Behavior Analyst.
What Does ABA Therapy treat?
- Difficulty with daily tasks (e.g., brushing teeth, eating, cleaning)
- Poor academic performance
- Poor social skills and other communication difficulties
- Rule-breaking
- Harming oneself or others
- Anger outbursts
- Inappropriate sexual behavior
- Motor skill issues (e.g., learning to write)
- And more
Sometimes, these issues are caused by trauma, such as abuse or neglect. Sometimes, they happen as the result of developmental differences (such as autism, ADHD, learning disability, etc.) which make adapting and socializing difficult. And sometimes, issues can crop up because of the home environment, such as inconsistent rules or parent conflict. This is why BCBA therapists work both with the individual and the family to help get everyone on the path to wellness and functional success.
We know what it’s like to struggle and worry about loved ones with behavioral issues; and, we know things can get better. No matter how difficult things might seem, there is hope.
ABA Family Training & Support
In addition to individual work, ABA also includes family training and support. With the right knowledge and guidance, parents and families can make a dramatic positive impact on their child’s progress.
Family training is designed to help you:
- Understand underlying issues that cause behavioral difficulties
- Learn ways to respond to emotional outbursts
- Discover strategies for improving your child’s wellbeing
- Utilize expert resources and support in the community.

Once you get signed up to work with our team, our BCBA therapist will help set up the functional behavioral assessment. In addition, we also provide a full, comprehensive assessment to cover additional areas of functioning, including: such as communication, social, behavioral, safety, self-help and executive functioning.
- Intellectual functioning
- Communication skills
- Safety concerns
- Adaptive functioning and self-help
- Emotional functioning (e.g., depression, social anxiety, etc.)
- School or academic functioning
- Executive functioning (e.g., attention, organization, planning)

Once we know what might be going on and what the diagnosis might include, the BCBA will design an adapted behavior plan for your child’s needs. We can then start a regular schedule for individual ABA therapy and family training in your home!
We are committed to providing kids and families in our community with the resources they need to adapt, learn, and grow.
