Helping Your Child Achieve Their Full Potential
Each service is designed to address your child's unique needs, fostering growth and development in a supportive and effective manner.
The Outcomes of the Outlined Services Will Be Achieved Through Use of the Following Strategies:
Rapport Building
At Hearts to Mind ABA Therapy, we focus on establishing genuine, compassionate, and supportive relationships. We respect each person’s unique interests and abilities, fostering a warm and culturally conscious environment.
Behavior Skills Training
We ensure all staff and caregivers are trained in treatment protocols using Behavior Skills Training (BST). This involves written instructions, rehearsals, role-playing, modeling, and simultaneous coaching/feedback. This process is repeated until protocols are implemented with fidelity.
Functional Analysis
Our functional analysis assessments identify the most and least effective environmental contexts for learning. This helps us create adaptable learning environments and pinpoint areas that may hinder the individual’s adaptation.
Shaping and Chaining Procedures
We make systematic, mindful alterations to the environment to pace adaptation for each individual. We teach one critical behavior at a time and then chain them together to form more complex behaviors.
Reinforcement
We use meaningful reinforcement contingencies to teach and reinforce socially significant behaviors. These behaviors are reinforced through natural outcomes, ensuring their significance and effectiveness.
Environmental Arrangement
Positive behaviors are encouraged through careful manipulation of the environment. We consider objects, furniture placement, color choices, lighting, acoustics, routines, and staff behavior within the learning environment.
Coordination of Care
Hearts to Mind ABA Therapy collaborates with each individual’s service providers, primary care physicians, and family members. We consult with related service providers monthly and with primary care physicians bi-annually to ensure continuity of care. Collaboration with caregivers is crucial for setting treatment goals and monitoring progress.
Data Collection and Visual Analysis
We collect data on all measurable treatment goals and analyze it visually on a frequent basis. This data informs data-driven decision-making and protocol modifications.
Career Coaching and Supported Employment
We offer career coaching and supported employment services for individuals aged 15 to 21.
