ABA Therapy
At GRACIE, we specialize in helping people who have a range of conditions such as Autism, ADHD, PTSD, anxiety disorders, cerebral palsy, and other developmental and mental health disorders. Our goal is to improve communication skills, encourage independence, equality, and develop social skills that are suitable for each individual's age while managing difficult behaviors.
We use a method called Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) to assist individuals in leading fulfilling lives. Our services cater to various needs and are provided in different settings:
- Clinic-Based Therapy: This therapy is usually conducted in a dedicated space filled with resources designed to aid learning and behavior development. For example, it may include a variety of tools and activities designed to help individuals learn and practice social, communication, and life skills. The structured environment could include areas for individual and group activities, as well as quiet spaces for focused work or relaxation. The goal is to create a controlled environment where specific behaviors can be addressed with minimal external distractions.
- Home-Based Therapy: In this setting, the therapy is integrated into the individual's everyday environment. For instance, a therapist might work with a child and their parents at home to address specific behaviors, such as difficulties with morning routines or conflicts during meal times. The therapy could involve teaching the child coping strategies, and coaching the parents on how to support their child in implementing these strategies. The therapist might also work with the family to rearrange the home environment in ways that support the child's behavior goals.
- School-Based Therapy: This might involve a therapist working in a classroom setting alongside teachers and school staff. They may help develop individualized education plans (IEPs) that accommodate the student's needs and goals. The therapist could also provide in-the-moment support for the student in navigating social interactions and managing their behavior in the school environment. Additionally, they could conduct training sessions for school staff to help them better understand and support the student's needs.
- Community-Based Therapy: In this type of therapy, individuals are supported in navigating real-world settings. For instance, a therapist might accompany an individual to a grocery store to help them practice skills related to shopping, like making a list, finding items, interacting with store staff, and handling money. Alternatively, they might go with them to a social event to support them in interacting with others and managing any social anxiety or difficulties. The goal is to help individuals generalize the skills they've learned in therapy to their day-to-day life in the community.
At GRACIE, our services are designed with a focus on the individual. We acknowledge their unique needs, strengths, and potential, and are committed to creating a supportive journey towards personal growth and independence, one step at a time.
