Tag: Autistic Children

An autistic child or a child with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a child who shows atypical behaviors and symptoms associated with ASD. These children may have difficulty communicating and interacting with others, and may display repetitive or unusual behaviors. Children with ASD often have difficulty understanding social cues, such as body language or facial expressions, and may not pick up on the subtleties of conversation. They may also have difficulty making eye contact or engaging in back-and-forth banter.

One way to help a child with ASD to thrive in their daily life is by using Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA). ABA is a type of therapy that uses positive reinforcement to encourage desired behaviors and discourage undesired behaviors. ABA has been shown to be an effective treatment for ASD, and can help children with ASD learn new skills and improve their ability to function in daily life.

At The Autism Therapy Group, we provide ABA Therapy for children with ASD. Our team of Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs) create individualized treatment plans based on each child’s unique needs. We work with families to help their children reach their full potential.
