What to Expect from an ABA Therapy Session

ABA therapy, or Applied Behavior Analysis therapy, is a highly effective approach for helping children refine their essential skills and achieve their maximum potential. Whether your child has autism, developmental delays, or behavioral challenges, ABA therapy can be a transformative tool in their journey toward growth and independence. 

Before we discuss what you can expect from an ABA session, let us delve deeper into what ABA therapy is and how it can help your child. 

Understanding ABA Therapy

ABA therapy is a scientifically validated approach based on the principles of behavior analysis. It focuses on teaching and reinforcing positive behaviors while reducing unwanted behaviors. Every ABA session is custom-tailored to the unique needs and goals of each child. The ultimate aim is to enhance a child’s communication, social, academic, and daily living skills.

ABA therapy can be conducted in various settings to meet the specific needs of your child:

  • Home-Based ABA- Sessions take place in your home environment, ensuring your child can apply learned skills to daily life.
  • School-Based ABA– ABA therapy can be integrated into your child’s school day, ensuring that they have ample support in the classroom setting. 
  • Parent Training Services– As a caregiver you play a crucial role in supporting your child’s development. ABA therapists can provide you with guidance and training through parent training. 

While each ABA session is unique and adapts to your child’s specific needs and goals, there is a basic pattern that most sessions follow that includes:

  • Preparing for the Session

Before the ABA session begins, a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) will carefully plan the therapy session. They review your child’s progress, assess goals, and prepare any necessary materials or resources required for the session. 

  • Planning Activities

BCBAs create a comprehensive plan of activities designed to address your child’s specific goals during ABA sessions. These activities are engaging and interactive, tailored to your child’s interests and abilities.

  • Implementing ABA Therapy Session

During the session, the ABA therapist runs the planned activities, providing guidance and support to your child. They employ positive reinforcement techniques to encourage desired behaviors and reduce challenging ones. Progress is closely monitored, and any necessary adjustments are made to the therapy plan so your child can receive custom support.
