Learn More About Ascend ABA

Ascend ABA provides evidence-based ABA therapy to children, adolescents, and adults with ASD and other intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD). Through in-home and community-based ABA therapy, our dedicated team helps clients reach their goals and participate more fully in daily activities they find valuable.

Providing support for the whole family is central to who we are, and we offer collaboration and guidance throughout the entire process. We start by getting to know your whole child, analyzing his or her behavioral and developmental history, working with your child and the rest of your family codetermine goals for treatment, then offer services driven by our clinical expertise.

Diversity and Inclusion Policy

Ascend ABA is committed to racial and cultural diversity and inclusivity throughout our organization and the work that we do. We will ensure the recruitment of diverse candidates for new positions and in our partners and vendors.

What We Offer

Our clinical experience tells us that the needs and goals of children with ASD change and may become more complex as these individuals develop. That’s why our services are available to individuals of all levels of need and age. Clients and their families have our support as they reach adolescence and beyond.

The therapeutic techniques we offer help increase social and communication skills and reduce potentially harmful or dangerous behaviors that may interfere with participation in ongoing activities. Our team is equipped to handle even the most complex behavioral needs by developing individualized care plans for our clients as well as education and support to their caregivers. Our top priority is to help each of our clients gain independence and truly thrive within their community so they are able to access as many rewarding opportunities as possible.

Our team of highly trained providers, consisting of Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs) and Registered Behavior Technicians (RBTs) takes a comprehensive approach to assessing each individual’s areas of strength as well as areas where additional support is needed. Our goal is to meet each client where they are to help them live the most independent, fulfilled life possible. Our team appreciates the unique preferences and strengths of each client, and uses this information, along with the results of the FBA to guide our treatment approach.

ABA Therapy

Decades of research demonstrate ABA therapy’s effectiveness in helping individuals with ASD and other related diagnoses reach their individual goals, with a focus on improving overall functioning within their communities. ABA treatment is highly individualized for each client, taking into account their unique needs, goals, and preferences to build an intervention plan that works for them.

Individualized Care

Our BCBAs create individualized treatment plans to encourage learning, growth, and independence in each client. Each client’s treatment plan is based on the results of the comprehensive functional behavioral assessment, or FBA, that our team of BCBAs complete at the start of services, and then routinely throughout ongoing services to assess progress towards goals.

Behavior Support Plans

Once we complete the FBA, your child’s BCBA will create a truly individualized behavior support plan, or BSP, to help your child reach their goals in multiple domains, including increasing social, communication, and functional skills, as well as reducing behaviors that may interfere with learning or participation in activities.

Family Training

The family members of children with ASD and other IDD often experience increased stress. In addition to developing individualized interventions for our clients, we also provide ongoing support and guidance to families to help ensure our clients receive the consistent care they need to produce the best possible outcomes.
