Applied Behaviour Analysis
Teaching Children the Skills to Communicate, manage Behaviours,
and Participate Fully in Daily Life.
Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA) is an evidence-based approach that helps children, particularly those with autism spectrum disorder, develop meaningful skills and overcome daily challenges. At Rise, we go beyond traditional ABA by integrating it with speech Therapy, creating a comprehensive approach led by our BCaBA-certified Therapist from BACB (USA). This specialized expertise allows us to address communication gaps, reduces challenging behaviours like meltdowns, and builds essential skills for independence at home, school, and in the community. Our goal is to help your child learn, grow, and participate confidently in everyday life.
Who Needs this Therapy
ABA Therapy benefits children with autism spectrum disorder, developmental delays, or behavioural challenges. It’s especially helpful for children struggling with communication, social skills, challenging behaviours like meltdowns or aggression, daily living skills, or anyone needing structured support to learn and generalize essential life skills.
What we Help With
Communication & Language Development:
Building functional communication skills to help children express their needs, wants, and thoughts effectively, reducing frustration and challenging behaviours.
Social Interaction & Peer Relationships:
Teaching social skills that help children connect with peers, understand social cues, and build meaningful friendships in school and community.
Daily Living & Self-Care Skills:
Developing independence in dressing, eating, grooming, and other self-care activities essential for daily life and confidence.
Academic & Learning Readiness:
Strengthening foundational learning skills, attention, and classroom behaviours to support school success and academic achievement.
Challenging Behaviours & Emotional Regulation:
Understanding and addressing behaviours like meltdowns, aggression, or self-injury by identifying triggers and teaching healthier ways to cope and communicate.
Play Skills & Meaningful Engagement:
Encouraging age-appropriate play, imagination, and engagement with toys and activities that foster learning and joy in natural settings.
Generalization & Real-World Application:
Ensuring skills learned in Therapy transfer to home, school, and community settings, so your child can succeed everywhere they go.
