ABA Therapy at Pediatric Advanced Therapy

Offering Clinic and In-Home ABA Therapy

ABA (Applied Behavior Analysis) is a form of therapy that helps children with autism spectrum disorders, ages 2-12 years old. ABA therapy uses a one-on-one teaching approach to help children through reinforcement of desired behaviors. Children diagnosed with autism present with a spectrum of strengths and challenges, requiring a spectrum of interventions. When your child begins ABA at PAT, they will receive an individualized treatment plan, customized to their specific needs. Read more about getting started with ABA at PAT here.

The ABC’s of ABA:

ABA uses a systematic approach to reduce negative and excess behaviors.

What does ABA help with?

Goals are custom made for each, individual child and meet the child in their current circumstance. Goals may work on one or more of the following skills:

How often will my child attend ABA?

The number of hours your child attends ABA will be based on your child’s individualized treatment plan. In your child’s ABA evaluation, our BCBA’s (Board Certified Behavior Analyst) will determine what time and frequency will work best for your child. Hours for therapy may range from 10-35 hours/week.

Is ABA covered by my insurance?

Yes! Both private insurances and Medicaid typically support ABA therapy. We accept NC Medicaid Direct (Alliance, NC Healthchoice, Partners, Vaya) and private insurances including Aetna, BCBS, Medcost, and United.
