Frequently asked questions at our San Antonio: Perrin Beitel, Texas, 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' Perrin Beitel location in San Antonio, Texas, is tailored to the individual needs of the child. The doctor said my child's development is delayed and suggested waiting to test for autism.
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 Greater San Antonio 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 their communication and interactions with others. Starting ABA therapy at our Perrin Beitel autism center early, ideally between the ages of 18 months and 5, gives your child the best chance to grow and reach their goals.
Does my child need an autism diagnosis before starting ABA therapy?
