About Us Core Beliefs ABA works under the assumption that people engage in behavior due to the consequence of that behavior. Typically, behaviors occur because, in the past, they have been reinforced by escape, attention, access to an object, or a self-stimulatory effect. Traditional ABA may look at those consequences to control behavior, we try to look at those consequences as to way to help the client self-advocate and get a need met. We presume competence Self-advocacy skills are imperative for successful adults Students should be allowed to say no, ask for breaks, and decline touch Students are the clients Parents and other therapists are our partners Data is very important. It is graphed daily, and parents have access Teaching is usually the best way to learn It is important to listen to Autistic voices We honor and celebrate neurodivergence.
