The Behavior Project

At The Behavior Project, we want to make sure your child has the best chance at succeeding in life, and that starts with language and communication development. If you’re wondering if your child needs speech therapy, here’s what you should look out for: difficulty responding to questions, difficulty starting or ending conversations, difficulty changing conversation topics, difficulty understanding body language, and difficulty using gestures like pointing. Speech therapy is a key part of early intervention for autistic children, and is a great way to help your child learn effective communication skills, so they can grow into more independent and confident individuals. Our guide will tell you everything you need to know about speech therapy and how it can help your child.

At The Behavior Project, we understand how important it is for your child to effectively communicate with others, which is why we provide specialized speech therapy services to help them reach their goals. Our speech therapists utilize a variety of techniques, such as nonverbal skills, gesture and sign language, verbal speech, and Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC). Additionally, we can help your child with speech clarity, understanding and responding to questions, recognizing facial expressions and body language, and overcoming stuttering. With our help, your child can develop the communication skills they need to succeed.

At The Behavior Project, we specialize in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy. Our experienced and knowledgeable team of professionals works with children and adults to help improve communication, social, and daily living skills, as well as address any problematic or challenging behaviors. Our goal is to help our clients become more independent, and to provide them with the tools and resources to reduce any harmful behaviors. For more information about ABA therapy, visit our website for our comprehensive guide.

At The Behavior Project, we understand that it’s a big decision to decide if ABA therapy is right for your child. ABA seeks to improve communication skills, introduce productive habits, and reduce harmful behaviors. However, not all ABA providers are equal. Beware of providers who look to “cure” autism or look to change who your child is. High quality ABA therapy does exist and its goal is to help children learn all that they can so they can live to their potential while embracing their unique, individual personality traits. To help you make an informed decision, we have created a guide to help you start and end ABA therapy. Get your guide today and make the best decision for your family.

At The Behavior Project, we understand that ABA therapy can be expensive and that it is usually covered by insurance if the individual has an autism diagnosis. We understand that insurance plans only typically authorize ABA therapy for those with autism, and we encourage you to check with your specific insurance plan to confirm that ABA is covered for the individual’s diagnosis and that the provider is in-network. To help you better understand ABA therapy and its costs, we’ve created a guide that answers all your questions. Check out our guide to ABA therapy to learn more!
