Our Approach
About ABA Therapy
Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) is a type of therapy based on the science of learning and behavior. ABA specifically looks at behaviors (desirable or undesirable) and why they occur to either increase or decrease them happening in the future.
ABA is an evidenced-based treatment for individuals diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Optimal outcomes of ABA therapy are early entry into a program (0-6 years) and intensive treatment hours (30-40 hours per week).
At Blossom, we specialize in developmentally appropriate, progressive and play-based ABA services. Our sessions are clinic-based and fully direct (face-to-face direct services). We offer both comprehensive and focused schedules that are individualized to the needs of each of our clients.

Meaningful Results
One of Blossom’s priorities is that life outside the clinic is positively impacted through our treatment approach. We focus on teaching skills that are appropriate in regard to development and ensure that they fully generalize to other settings!

Progressive and Play-Based Approach
Our foundation is in play. Play is the natural language of all children and our most motivating tool when teaching new skills. While there are definitely some difficult moments, they are outweighed by the amount of fun going on at all times! If there is playing then there is learning with our kiddos!
