A Board Certified Behavior Analyst, or BCBA, is a graduate-level professional who is certified in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) by the Behavior Analyst Certification Board. BCBAs apply the principles of ABA to help children with autism improve behaviors and reach optimal outcomes so that they can reach their true potential. Enspirit Healthcare BCBAs oversee the development, implementation and evaluation of individualized ABA Therapy for our clients. They take the lead building the best possible plan based on each child’s unique strengths and needs.
At Enspirit Healthcare, Behavior Technicians work one-on-one with children with autism to implement techniques identified in the child’s treatment plan that help them navigate everyday processes. We train every one of our Behavior Technicians in the science of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy both before and during their employment.
It is very important to participate and attend all of the recommended and authorized hours of treatment identified in the treatment plan. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that starting ABA therapy as soon as possible with intensive intervention is associated with better outcomes.
At Enspirit Healthcare, we take a unique and comprehensive approach to ABA therapy. Each child and family has a therapy team which consists of a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA), a Behavior Technician, and a Client Care Coordinator. Your team’s main function is to work together with you and your family to ensure that your child is receiving the highest quality ABA therapy.
Yes! Parent and family involvement in the treatment planning for a child with autism is very important. You know your child best and your family’s goals for your child will be included in the therapy treatment plan. It is also important for families to participate in ABA training sessions so that they can extend the child’s treatment to the hours outside of therapy.
If your child has been diagnosed with autism then the best next step is to start the process to begin ABA therapy. At Enspirit Healthcare, we will work side-by-side with you and your insurance providers and physicians to verify insurance coverage, get insurance authorizations and have an assessment scheduled as quickly as possible.
Depending on your location, and time of day you will have ABA sessions, we can start in as little as two weeks. After the Initial Assessment and Treatment Plan are developed, your Client Service Manager will contact your Health Insurance provider and submit for ABA coverage. We will be working on finding you a Behavior Technician that meets the needs of your child. Also, your Supervising Clinician will supervise the treatment plan and Behavior Technician moving forward. Once all staff is in place, and the ABA coverage through the insurance provider is authorized, we are ready to start!
ABA Therapy can take place in the home setting or in a ABA Center. ABA Therapy techniques work well in both environments. In choosing between the two, most families look for the most effective approach based upon the needs of their child and the demands of their lifestyle.
Therapy sessions are based upon the number of hours your Board Certified Behavior Analyst recommends as part of the treatment plan. Sessions will range based on the need of the individual child and the associated treatment goals your BCBA and yourself have created together.
