ABA therapy, or Applied Behavior Analysis, is a scientifically proven method designed to teach functional behaviors and promote skill acquisition. This evidence-based approach empowers children with Autism, other developmental disabilities, or behavioral challenges to enhance their cognitive, social, language, daily living, and executive functioning skills.
At Open Door Behavioral Services, we pride ourselves on a therapy process designed to meet each child’s unique needs, cultivating meaningful progress and success across multiple developmental areas.
