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 skills including comprehension, expressive communication, social interaction, play skills, academic / learning skills, activities of daily living and life skills.
Providing aba therapyl to children with autism within their natural environment facilitates language learning and life skills while also helping decrease 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.

Aba Therapy Whitby Social Skills Programs
Difficulties with interactive play and social skills are one of the hallmark signs of autism spectrum disorder. For many children on the autism spectrum play skills, social interaction, social language and conversation skills must be taught and practiced within a a therapeutic setting before they can be expected to generalize these skills with other people at home and in the community. Nexus Aba Therapy teaches children the vital social skills that they will need to feel confident and succeed in socializing with their peers. Our social skills programs in Whitby include social stories, video demonstration, role-plays, board games, drawing, and discussion during each group.

Activities of Daily Living & Life Skills Training
​The process of learning self care skills, dressing, grooming and toileting 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 in Whitby focus on parent and caregiver training and direct intervention to help children become more independent in using the bathroom, washing, bathing and dressing.
