ABA Therapy

At Autism Learning Space Center, we specialize in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy—a gold-standard, evidence-based approach to helping children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) develop essential skills, reduce challenging behaviors, and gain independence.

Our highly individualized ABA programs are designed to support each child’s unique needs, personality, and pace of growth. Whether your child is non-verbal, struggling with transitions, or needs support with social and daily living skills, our compassionate team in Oak Park, IL is here to help.

What Is ABA Therapy?

Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) is a scientific, structured approach to understanding behavior and how it is affected by the environment. It uses positive reinforcement to teach new behaviors, improve communication, reduce problematic behaviors, and promote independence in children with autism.

At our center, ABA therapy is delivered by trained and certified professionals, including Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs) and Registered Behavior Technicians (RBTs), under the supervision of licensed clinicians.

What Skills Does ABA Therapy Help Improve?

ABA therapy is highly flexible and can address a wide range of developmental areas, including:

• 🗣️ Communication (verbal, non-verbal, AAC devices)
• 🤝 Social interaction and play skills
• ✋ Behavior management and emotional regulation
• 🧠 Focus, attention, and following directions
• 🛁 Self-help and daily living skills (toileting, dressing, hygiene)
