Frequently asked questions at our North Glenview, Illinois, ABA therapy center
What is ABA therapy, and how does it work?
Applied behavior analysis (ABA) therapy is an evidence-based treatment for autism that uses positive reinforcement and play-based techniques to help children reduce target behaviors and learn new skills. ABA therapy at Action Behavior Centers' North Glenview location in Glenview, Illinois, is tailored to the individual needs of the child.
What is the M-CHAT-R-R autism screener?
The M-CHAT-R-R is a trusted screening tool used by families in Glenview to detect early signs of autism spectrum disorder (ASD). It’s designed to maximize sensitivity, ensuring as many children as possible who may benefit from evaluation are identified early.
Is that a good idea?
It’s understandable to want to trust that your child will catch up on their own, but waiting to seek an autism diagnosis in the North Shore area can mean missing important chances for early intervention. Getting an early autism diagnosis lets your child start therapies like ABA sooner, which can improve communication and interactions with others. Starting ABA therapy at our North Glenview autism center early, ideally between 18 months and 5 years, gives your child the best chance to grow and reach their goals.
Does my child need an autism diagnosis before starting ABA therapy?
Yes, a formal autism diagnosis is required before a child can begin ABA therapy at North Glenview in Glenview, Illinois.
