A Brighter Tomorrow Begins Today with New Dawn ABA

ABA therapy, or Applied Behavior Analysis, is a type of therapy that focuses on improving specific behaviors like communication, social skills, and adaptive learning skills through positive reinforcement. It’s often used to help individuals with autism or other developmental conditions, though it can be applied to anyone looking to change certain behaviors.

The idea is to break down complex tasks into smaller, more manageable steps and reward positive actions to encourage progress. ABA is a personalized approach, meaning it’s tailored to each person’s unique needs and goals, helping them thrive in their everyday life.​⬤

The main goals of ABA therapy are to improve communication, social skills, and positive behaviors while reducing challenging ones. It helps individuals develop essential life skills, fostering independence and making everyday tasks more manageable. By breaking tasks into smaller steps and using positive reinforcement, ABA therapy empowers individuals to thrive in various settings, whether at home, school, or in the community.​⬤

The cost of ABA therapy can vary widely depending on factors like location, the intensity of the therapy, and the provider. On average, ABA therapy can range from $120 to $250 per hour. For intensive therapy, where a child may receive 20-40 hours per week, the total cost can be between $2,400 and $10,000 per month.

Many insurance plans, especially those mandated by state laws, cover ABA therapy for individuals diagnosed with autism, which can significantly reduce out-of-pocket costs. However, it’s essential to check with your specific provider and insurance to understand coverage and costs.
