What is ABA Therapy?
You will find personalized Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) or ABA therapy for kids with autism at all our locations. Simply put, Applied Behavior Analysis is an evidence-based approach focusing on understanding and enhancing behavior. It dives deep into the ways people learn, behave, and adapt to their environment. For children with autism or Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), ABA therapy can be transformative. It can help them acquire essential skills beneficial for their development while reducing challenging behaviors. Behavioral Innovations is currently serving clients in Texas, Oklahoma, Colorado, Maryland, North Carolina, and Virginia.
Benefits of ABA Therapy
Children in ABA therapy and their parents can benefit from the strategies and skills taught during therapy sessions. What your child learns will help them become more confident and independent, letting them enjoy new experiences and gain opportunities as they grow up.
Advantages of ABA therapy for children with autism and their families include:
How ABA Therapy Helps
- Behavior Management: Teaches children effective ways to manage and regulate their behaviors in various life situations.
- Understanding of Appropriate Behavior: Helps children distinguish between appropriate and less desirable behaviors, promoting better decision-making.
- Skill Development: Aids in acquiring crucial skills like communication and socialization, enhancing daily life interactions.
- Easier Adjustment: Provides strategies that assist children in adapting more comfortably to their surroundings and everyday challenges.

ABA Therapy Principles
ABA therapy derives from the principles of behavior. These principles help children with autism make sense of behaviors and how they should respond depending on what’s happening around them. The four behavior principles include:
- Your surroundings matter: The places and people around you can influence how you behave.
- Actions have consequences: What happens after a behavior can encourage or discourage it from happening again.
- Positivity wins: Positive reinforcement and rewards are more effective at changing behaviors.
- Consistency is key: Behaviors must be encouraged or discouraged regularly to see real change.
At Behavioral Innovations, our Board-Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs) and therapists utilize these important behavioral principles to identify your child’s unique strengths and challenges and create an ABA treatment plan for their specific needs.

Behavioral Innovations is one of the best decisions I’ve made for my son. I was very nervous leaving my then non verbal child somewhere for the first time but this center has helped our family so much. I feel the staff really cares about my child and uses techniques that cater to his way of learning and making it fun while and also supporting me as a parent! He has come a long way, grown so much and now does things I wasn’t sure he would be able to thanks to Behavioral Innovations.

Having a child with autism takes a village and I can gladly say everyone here at BI is family. My son has been here a little over a year and it has been amazing every step of the way! Since the day I stopped by to check out the center the center administrator was there to greet me with the biggest smile and welcoming energy! From that day forward I knew this is where we were supposed to be! The communication here is great and they are always keeping me updated on all the amazing things my son is achieving. I honestly don’t know where I’d be without the amazing love and support from the team here at Behavioral innovation.

Behavioral Innovations has been an amazing place for my toddler. Since attending daily, he has made so much progress in both communication and overall skills. He went from being nonverbal to now expressing himself in ways we once thought would take much longer. The staff is patient, supportive, and truly dedicated to each child’s growth. I’m so grateful for the positive impact they’ve had on his development. Thank you to the staff & BI RBT’s and BCBA for your service & support!! I definitely recommend to any parents who wants their child to thrive!!!
