Our in-home therapy focuses on several key areas, including behavior reduction, communication development, academic readiness, daily living skills, and emotional regulation. Working within the child’s natural routines and surroundings allows us to teach functional skills in the context where they are most needed—whether it’s using words to ask for a snack, following instructions during a morning routine, or managing big emotions during transitions.

A major component of in-home therapy is addressing challenging behaviors. Our therapists identify the underlying reasons for behaviors and implement individualized behavior intervention plans to reduce those behaviors while teaching positive alternatives. We use reinforcement, visual supports, and proactive strategies to create a more peaceful and predictable home environment.

We also support language and communication development, using ABA-based techniques such as prompting, modeling, and reinforcement to teach functional communication. This may involve speech, signs, or assistive communication devices, depending on each child’s needs and abilities.

In-home sessions often include academic skills and school readiness, like attending to tasks, identifying colors or letters, and completing simple work tasks. Because we’re in the home, we can easily incorporate learning into natural routines like cooking, cleaning up toys, or reading books.

Another focus is daily living skills, such as dressing, brushing teeth, or following a bedtime routine. Our therapists work directly with children to build independence and confidence in these areas, using task analysis and positive reinforcement to support success.

Emotional regulation is woven throughout our sessions as children learn how to identify their feelings, ask for help, and use calming strategies. We provide tools like visual emotion charts and practice coping skills in the moment when emotions arise.

Family involvement is a key part of in-home ABA therapy. We provide parent coaching, share strategies, and encourage families to participate in sessions so they feel empowered to support their child’s progress. The goal is to create long-lasting change that extends well beyond therapy sessions.
