What is ABA Therapy for Autism?

ABA therapy at CST Academy is a personalized and evidence-based method designed to support children on the autism spectrum. Individualized care plans address the unique ways children interact with their environment, providing effective strategies to navigate the world around us.

ABA is an evidence-based practice that increases skill acquisition and decreases challenging behaviors. We address skills across domains, including expressive and receptive language, social skills with adults and peers, cognitive skills, imitation and play. Our goal is to have each learner gain the personal independence and autonomy that will allow them to reach their fullest potential.

Throughout the course of ABA therapy our team works with children to build critical developmental skills, such as communication, behavior, cognition, social skills, play skills, and more. We focus on building each child’s skill repertoire in order to consequently reduce challenging behaviors through a positive approach to intervention.

100+ 5-Star Google Reviews | CST Academy

"After almost 2 years our son’s time at CST Academy has come to an end. The preschool program has done wonders for him. Ms Jaclyn is such a warm, kind and patient teacher. She and my son’s OT (Ms. Nikki) and ST (Ms. Erika) worked together to ensure he was meeting all of his goals. The level of collaboration between all therapies shows how dedicated they are to helping your child reach their full potential. They have all made such an impact on him, it’s amazing to see the changes since he started there. He has blossomed into a strong, confident boy who is more than prepared to start his new school in a few weeks. We will always fondly remember our time at CST Academy. Can’t recommend them enough!"

"I worked with CST Academy over a period of about 10 months. They are absolutely incredible! I also referred a friend to their program and the progress his child made just blew him away! Usually, I don’t write reviews unless I feel strongly compelled one way or the other, and in this case I do! You cannot go wrong here. I would not trust my children to anyone else. Call them and see for yourself. I have seen other programs and there is just no comparison."
