The ABA program provides support based on the principles of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA). ABA services will address specific behavior concerns and skill acquisition through an individualized treatment protocol created by a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA). Targets can include reducing maladaptive behaviors and replacing them with something more socially appropriate, teaching foundational skills to be successful in learning, social skills, and parent-directed intervention. All clients will be seen with a 1:1 staff-to-client ratio, however, if appropriate for the clients goal they may be in a group setting to promote appropriate social skills, with the one-on-one support of a therapist. Additionally, parent training is a mandatory component of the program, to allow for the generalization of the skills taught in the clinic.
Although ABA is an empirically validated intervention for individuals on the autism spectrum, ABA therapy is not limited intervention to only autism.
The Children's Autism Program through Texas Health and Human Services provides financial support to focused ABA children to those who qualify. To qualify for the Children’s Autism program:
- The child must be ages 3-15 years
- Have a diagnosis of ASD.
- Be a Texas resident.
The client accepted into the children’s autism program will be eligible for up to 180 hours per year of one on one therapy and small group therapy for up to 720 hour in a lifetime (until their 16th Birthday)
· Additionally, Temple accepts most insurances as well as private pay options.
