What are the Benefits of Aba Therapy at Home
ABA therapy uses direct teaching and positive reinforcement to help children with autism learn a wide variety of functional skills including comprehension, expressive communication, social interaction, play skills, emotional regulation, academic / learning skills, activities of daily living and life skills. Providing in-home therapy to children with autism within their natural environment facilitates learning language and household skills and decreases undesirable behaviors because therapy is being delivered where the behaviour will normally take place. In-home care also provides better, and more opportunities for parent and caregiver training, thereby allowing them to reinforce the ABA interventions and increase the chances that the child will maintain the desired behavior and the acquisition of new skills.
