What is ABA Therapy?
Applied Behavioral Analysis is an evolving science dedicated to adapting and advancing the skills and growth of individuals of all needs and ages. With a focus in neurodivergent disorders (ASD/Sensory/ADHD/ect…), ABA uses an evidence-based approach that is focused on enhancing lives. It allows us to take a deep dive into the way people think, learn, behave, and adapt to their environments. For those who receive ABA therapy, it can be a marvelous way to open new doors and learn to advocate for themselves. It also provides them new methods of response where in the past they may have only had intensive behaviors at their disposal.
Our approach at Moore than Behavior takes ABA therapy and adapts it to you! We like to joke around and say, “we are not your grandma’s ABA.” What that means to us is that we want to take the old methods of ABA, where focus on the ‘strange/weird’ could get in the way of true development. We are not here to stop stims, to create robots meant for showing off in public, or to create tricks that aren’t useful. We want to truly and meaningfully develop a set of skills that assist everyone in coping, advocating, and growing in a world that can be undeniably stressful.

What are some components of a Moore than Behavior ABA session:
Our Process
Consultation: you can call/email/ or schedule on our website a free 15-minute time slot for any questions
Waitlist: we encourage you to sign up to our waitress for services as it is an ever-evolving system
What we need from you: a diagnostic assessment for ASD (if using insurance), a copy of your insurance card, a completed intake sheet (you will get this from us in an email), your therapy preferences, and your availability.
Assessment: we attempt to keep this as brief as possible for your family but everyone will undergo an assessment to compile information and baseline data for skill/behavior needs. The writing of the assessment and insurance wait after can take up to 14-days to complete.
Scheduling: once we have your recommendations, we will schedule appointments based upon availability and need.
