Cascade Behavioral Intervention

At Cascade Behavioral Intervention, we specialize in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy. ABA is a therapy that is rooted in the scientific study of learning and behavior. ABA therapy is used to help children and adults develop communication, social, and daily living skills while also reducing and managing problematic behaviors. The primary focus of ABA therapy is to provide individuals with the skills and knowledge that are necessary to achieve independence and reduce any harmful behaviors. Get the most out of ABA therapy by reading our comprehensive guide to ABA therapy.

At Cascade Behavioral Intervention, we understand that deciding whether or not to pursue applied behavior analysis (ABA) therapy for your child is a big decision. We believe that when done right, ABA can help improve communication skills, introduce productive habits, and reduce harmful behaviors. We also want to make sure you are aware that there are some ABA providers whose goal is to “cure” autism, and this is not the goal of high quality ABA therapy. Rather, ABA therapy should seek to help individuals learn all that they can so they can live to their potential while embracing their unique, individual personality traits. With that in mind, Cascade Behavioral Intervention is here to help provide you with the information and guidance you need to make an informed decision about ABA therapy for your family. To help you get started, we have created a comprehensive guide about starting and ending ABA therapy.

At Cascade Behavioral Intervention, we understand that cost can be a big concern when it comes to ABA therapy. Generally speaking, ABA is covered by insurance if your child has an autism diagnosis, as it is typically the only diagnosis insurance companies will authorize for ABA services. It is important to check with your specific insurance plan to make sure that ABA is covered for your child’s diagnoses and that the provider you are seeking care is in-network. We have put together a complete guide to ABA therapy that contains all the information you need to know to make the best decision for your family.
