School Age and Teens
Ages 6 – 18
This program is geared towards older children and teens that are participating in ABA therapy. This may mean a child who is new to ABA or who has been on their journey for years.
School Age and Teen Program
Your child may not have been diagnosed early on or maybe your child is just now showing signs of Autism Spectrum Disorder. Either way, Behavior Independence is here to help create a program that fits your child and meets them where they are. This could include a focus on social skills, self-care skills, communication skills, or even skills they will need as they grow such as job skills and relationship skills.
There is no “one size fits all” program when it comes to treatment plans. We are here to ensure your child’s treatment plan is individualized and allows your child to live a successful and fulfilling life as independently as possible.
Creative learning through making and moving
Therapy doesn’t always look the same. Our team keeps your child engaged with social activities, creative expression and exercise that is appropriate for your child along with the structured learning they will receive each session. Each technician and clinician works hard to not only develop a trusting relationship with you and your child but also gets to know who your child is as an individual to better connect and therefore better serve your child and your family.
