What is Applied Behavior Analysis Therapy?
New Summit Behavioral Therapy understands that each child is unique and deserves a specialized and tailored treatment approach. We work diligently with the child and family to develop a treatment plan that fits their specific needs in an effort to make functional gains. New Summit believes early intervention is key, while also understanding that children need to enjoy being children. This approach emphasizes an important balance of intensive intervention and naturalistic teaching strategies.
Parents are key players in their child's therapy. New Summit Behavioral Therapy works with parents to develop individualized treatment and understand ABA principles, allowing for successful integration of therapy into all aspects of their child's life.
