Applied Behavior Analysis for Autism

Compassionate ABA Therapy to Help Your Child Thrive

What Is ABA Therapy?

Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) is a proven, evidence-based therapy designed to help children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) develop critical skills and reduce challenging behaviors. At Mestre Behavior, we use ABA therapy to teach language, social interaction, self-care, and daily living skills through personalized, one-on-one sessions under the supervision of certified behavior analysts.

ABA therapy focuses on breaking down complex behaviors into small, manageable steps, reinforcing positive behaviors, and helping children achieve meaningful, lasting change. It is one of the most widely recommended therapies for autism and is backed by decades of research.

How ABA Therapy Works at Mestre Behavior

At Mestre Behavior, every child begins with a comprehensive behavioral assessment using tools like the Verbal Behavior Milestones Assessment and Placement Program (VB-MAPP). Based on the results, our Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs) design a tailored treatment plan focused on the child’s specific developmental needs and goals.

Our therapy includes:

  • One-on-one sessions led by trained behavior technicians

  • Positive reinforcement to encourage skill acquisition

  • Ongoing data collection to track progress and adjust interventions

  • Parent and caregiver training to support consistency at home

Who Benefits from ABA Therapy?

ABA therapy is effective for children of all ages and developmental levels. Whether your child is a toddler just beginning to speak, a school-age child struggling with social interactions, or a teen needing support with independence and daily living, ABA can be customized to meet their needs.

We specialize in supporting children diagnosed with ASD and other developmental disorders. Early intervention can be particularly beneficial, but it’s never too late to start ABA therapy.

More About Our ABA Programs

We offer flexible ABA therapy options tailored to meet families where they are, ensuring that each child receives the right support in the most suitable environment:

  • Full-Day Program
    This intensive, individualized program supports children who exhibit more severe behavioral challenges or need substantial support across multiple areas. With a full-day schedule, children receive high-frequency ABA therapy to target skill deficits and reduce problem behaviors in a structured setting.
  • Little Learners Program (18 months – 5 years)Our early intervention program is designed for toddlers and preschoolers, providing structured, play-based learning that targets foundational skills such as eye contact, following instructions, imitation, and basic communication. The goal is to prepare children for school readiness and promote developmental progress during these critical early years.
  • After-School Program
    Ideal for school-aged children, this program focuses on strengthening social skills, enhancing communication, improving emotional regulation, and supporting academic tasks. It provides a smooth transition from school to therapeutic care and helps reinforce positive behaviors throughout the evening routine.
  • Home-Based Therapy
    Delivered in the child’s natural environment, our in-home ABA therapy allows therapists to address behaviors in real-life situations. This setting promotes generalization of skills such as sharing, asking for help, and daily living routines, while also training caregivers to use ABA strategies effectively.
  • School-Based Services
    Our therapists collaborate with teachers and school staff to help children succeed in academic environments. Services may include behavior support plans, classroom modifications, one-on-one support, and assistance with IEP goals to create consistency between home, school, and therapy.
