Clinic-Based ABA (Play-Based Model): All kids learn through

Through guided play, children practice communication, turn-taking, problem-solving, and social interaction in ways that feel natural and motivating. We integrate Discrete Trial Training (DTT) and Natural Environment Teaching (NET) into play, keeping therapy engaging and impactful.

Guided Play in Action:

Blocks, pretend play, art, music, group games—skills embedded

into what kids already enjoy.

Peer Practice:

Small-group opportunities to generalize social skills and friendship

behaviors.

Targeted Skills:

Requests, flexible play, coping skills, waiting, following directions.

Progress & Updating Plans:

Continuous data review; goals evolve as your child masters

skills.
