What are the Advantages of Aba Therapy at Home
​
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.

Integrated OT Intervention
​​​
​​​​​​​
Many children diagnosed with asd face challenges with fine motor skills, sensory processing and performing activities of daily living including dressing, eating and playing. Nexus Aba Therapy offers occupational therapy collaboration to promote, maintain, and develop the skills needed by children to be functional within the home, school setting and beyond. This includes:
​
-
self-care (e.g. dressing, eating a meal, managing toileting needs and managing personal hygiene)
-
productivity (e.g. emotional regulation, levels of alertness, participation, hand writing and organisational skills)
-
leisure (e.g. socialising with friends, belonging to a group, participating in hobbies/play and motor skills for physical education).​
We also offer assessment and treatment to address child’s sensory processing differences and remove barriers to learning and help the students become calmer and more focused.
Social Skills
Difficulties with interactive play and social skills are one of the hallmark signs of autism spectrum disorder. Enrollment into daycare or school where there are opportunities to engage in play with peers often does not help in the development of social skills very much. For many children on the autism spectrum play skills, social interaction, social language and conversation skills must be taught and practiced within a structured and therapeutic setting before they can be expected to generalize these skills with other people at home and in the community.

ABA Academic Programs
Many children on the autism spectrum who experience difficulties with attending and working independently at school are able to learn more readily with one to one aba instruction offered after school or in a home schooling program. Nexus Therapy offers individualized home schooling programs to help your child advance in language, reading and math and to better meet the expectations of the school curriculum.
​
Our Behavior Consultant Clinical Supervisors are available to collaborate with your child's class teacher to support with the school curriculum.

Activities of Daily Living
​The process of learning activities of daily living, personal care, dressing and grooming is typically instilled in a child’s daily life. Parents teach children how to complete tasks such as going to the bathroom, washing hands, brushing teeth, showering, combing hair, and putting on clothing and shoes in a specific order. Children with ASD typically take more time before they learn to making personal hygiene and grooming into a routine.
Our ABA treatment programs focus parent and caregiver training and direct intervention to help children become more independent in using the bathroom, washing, bathing and dressing.
