Science-Based Treatment for
Autism
At Virginia Beach ABA Therapy we use data-driven ABA techniques to assess interactions and deliver precise training that advances cognitive, social, language, and core life skills.
What is Applied Behavior Analysis?
Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) is the leading evidence-based therapy for children with autism spectrum disorder. It focuses on understanding how behavior works, how it is affected by the environment, and how learning takes place.
Through systematic observation and data collection, ABA therapists identify specific behaviors to target and develop individualized strategies to teach new skills and reduce problematic behaviors. The approach is highly structured, measurable, and adaptable to each child's unique needs.
ABA therapy is recognized by leading medical organizations, including the American Academy of Pediatrics and the U.S. Surgeon General, as an effective treatment for autism. Decades of research demonstrate that intensive, early intervention with ABA can lead to significant improvements in communication, social skills, academics, and daily living activities.

The Virginia Beach ABA Therapy Touch
Personalized & Interactive Approach
Our process begins with a comprehensive assessment conducted by a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA). This assessment identifies your child's current skills, areas for growth, and individual learning style.
Based on these findings, we create a fully individualized treatment plan with measurable goals. Our therapy sessions are designed to be engaging and fun, using positive reinforcement to motivate your child and make learning enjoyable.
Building Skills & Self-Worth
As children acquire new skills and reach their goals, they develop confidence and a sense of accomplishment. We celebrate every milestone, no matter how small, reinforcing positive self-esteem and a love of learning.
Our therapists work closely with families to ensure skills generalize across settings—home, school, and community. We provide parent training so you can reinforce progress and support your child's continued growth every day.
