Enriching Lives & Expanding Potential

Assessment services are used to evaluate and understand an individual's behaviour, identify areas for improvement, and develop targeted interventions/treatment goals. We will conduct Functional Behaviour Assessments/Functional Analyses to assess both the environmental factors influencing behavior and the specific behaviours themselves, using evidence-based strategies based on the principles of Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA).  

The process typically involves direct observation, interviews with caregivers or teachers, and standardized assessments. Through this comprehensive approach, our professionals create personalized treatment plans that focus on reinforcing positive behaviours, reducing challenging behaviours, and improving overall functioning in areas such as communication, social skills, and daily living to promote meaningful and lasting behaviour change.

Examples of Assessments offered: 

AFLS - Basic Living Skills, Home Skills, Community Participation, School Skills, etc. 

ABBLS-R - Outsourcing option

Note: Additional assessments that are not necessarily ABA-based are available through psychological services (see below)

Our Behaviour Intervention  services are designed to help individuals address challenging behaviours and develop more positive, adaptive responses. Using the principles of Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA), we conduct comprehensive assessments to identify the root causes of problem behaviours and create individualized intervention plans. These plans are tailored to meet the unique needs of each person, focusing on teaching new, functional skills while reducing undesirable behaviours. We emphasize a collaborative approach, working closely with families, schools, and other support networks to ensure consistency and effectiveness across all environments. Through ongoing monitoring and data-driven adjustments, our goal is to create lasting behaviour change, promoting a higher quality of life and greater independence for those we serve.

Our Parent Training services, using Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA), are designed to empower parents with the tools and strategies needed to support their child's development and address behavioural challenges effectively. Through personalized training sessions, we work closely with parents to teach them how to apply ABA principles in everyday situations, promoting positive behaviour, improving communication skills, and fostering independence. Our approach includes practical techniques for managing challenging behaviours, reinforcing positive actions, and enhancing family dynamics. By equipping parents with these evidence-based strategies, we aim to create a supportive and consistent environment at home that encourages lasting behavioural progress for children.

Our Social Skills and Life Skills Development services, grounded in Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA), focus on helping individuals build essential skills for success in everyday life. Using evidence-based techniques, we work to enhance communication, cooperation, problem-solving, and interpersonal interactions, enabling individuals to navigate social situations with confidence and independence. Our tailored programs also target important life skills, such as self-care, time management, and decision-making, ensuring individuals gain the tools they need to thrive at home, school, and in the community. Through consistent practice and positive reinforcement, our ABA-driven approach helps foster meaningful, lasting progress, supporting individuals in becoming more independent and socially engaged.

Our ABA Professional Consultation services provide expert guidance and support to organizations, educators, and other professionals seeking to implement or enhance Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA) strategies. Whether you are working with individuals with autism, developmental disabilities, or other behavioural concerns, our experienced consultants offer tailored advice on developing and refining behavior intervention plans, conducting assessments, and training staff. We collaborate closely with teams to ensure effective, evidence-based practices are applied, fostering positive behavioural outcomes. Our goal is to empower professionals with the knowledge and resources they need to create meaningful and lasting change in the lives of the individuals they serve.

Our psychotherapy services are designed to support individuals with developmental disabilities and complex needs, providing a compassionate and personalized approach to mental health and emotional well-being. While these services focus on therapeutic interventions and psychological support, it is important to note that they are not considered behaviour analytic services. Instead, our psychotherapy sessions aim to address emotional challenges, improve coping skills, and foster personal growth through evidence-based therapeutic techniques. Led by an experienced professional, our goal is to enhance the quality of life for individuals by addressing their unique psychological needs and supporting their journey toward greater emotional and mental wellness.

Please note  our psychotherapy services for individuals with developmental disabilities and complex needs are eligible for coverage through the Ontario Autism Program (OAP) funding. While these services are distinct from behaviour analytic services, OAP funding can still be used to support access to psychotherapy, ensuring that individuals receive the necessary therapeutic interventions to address emotional and psychological challenges. This coverage allows for a more holistic approach to care, complementing other services and enhancing overall well-being. For more information about how OAP funding can be applied to psychotherapy services, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us.

Note: Our Peer Support & Mentorship Services are designed to provide guidance, encouragement, and connection, with a focus on each individual's unique needs. Depending on the nature of the support required, mentorship may or may not incorporate behaviour analytic principles. For those seeking structured skill development and behaviour-based strategies, a behaviour analytic approach may be integrated. However, for individuals looking for general emotional support, shared experiences, and personal growth, mentorship may take on a more informal, relationship-driven approach. Regardless of the method, our goal is to foster meaningful connections and empower individuals on their journey to success.
