Parent Mediated Therapy
Social Connections ABA Therapy understands the current situation regarding limited funding for Applied Behaviour Analysis Services and the predicament this puts many families in. No caregiver should have to choose between effective therapy for your child and affording everyday expenses. As government funding is not yet available to all the individuals who requirement it, here at Social Connections we are altering our ABA therapy approach to ensure that everyone has access to more affordable, effective ABA services.
Following a similar model that is used by the other core clinical service providers such as Speech Language Pathologists and Occupational Therapists, this model will provide ABA services once a week, and will include caregiver participation and home assignments.
How It Works
Each session is one hour in length and will take place in-centre or virtually depending on the needs of the learner and family. The session will include your child working directly with the BCBA, BCaBA, or BCBA-supervised ABA clinician, caregiver coaching using behaviour skills training (an evidenced based strategy) and home assignments to ensure the learner is provided adequate practice to learn the targeted skill(s).
Package Options:
4 sessions
8 sessions
12 sessions
