1:1 ABA Therapy

Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA) is one of the most effective treatments for Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). We deliver an evidence-based treatment that ensures our students are being prepared for life beyond the treatment room.

The 1:1 ABA Therapy Program provides individualized support for learners to develop essential skills in a focused and structured environment. Each learner will work directly with a dedicated therapist for the entire session, ensuring personalized attention and targeted interventions. This program is ideal for learners who need to build foundational skills before transitioning to a small or large group setting. Additionally, the clinical team can conduct in-depth skill-based and behavior assessments, allowing for the development of tailored learning plans and behavior support strategies.
