At ABA Therapy by HERE Consulting, our core philosophy is rooted in understanding and respect. We believe every child is unique, with their own strengths, challenges, and path to success. Our goal is to guide your child towards achieving success and happiness that is truly meaningful to them. We don't just focus on isolated skills; we work holistically to foster communication, social interaction, learning abilities, and overall quality of life.
ABA Therapy is a scientifically validated approach used to bring about meaningful and positive changes in behavior. Our therapists are trained professionals who use ABA principles tailored to each child's specific needs. We focus on building skills across various domains, including:
- Communication Skills (verbal and non-verbal)
- Social Skills (interaction, play, perspective-taking)
- Adaptive Living Skills (self-care, daily routines)
- Behavioral Management (reducing challenging behaviors)
- Academic Engagement (motivation, focus, learning strategies)
We pride ourselves on creating a supportive and engaging environment where children feel comfortable to learn and grow. Our team collaborates closely with parents and caregivers, providing regular feedback and strategies to support progress both during therapy sessions and at home.
Whether you are based in the vibrant Downtown Eastside of Vancouver or seeking support from afar, we are committed to providing accessible, compassionate, and effective ABA therapy. We understand the challenges you face and are dedicated to being a partner in your child's journey towards a brighter future.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: What is ABA Therapy?
A1: Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) is a scientific approach to understanding how behavior is influenced by the environment. It focuses on identifying the reasons behind specific behaviors and using positive techniques to teach new skills and reduce challenging ones. ABA therapy is highly effective for individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and other developmental disabilities, helping them develop essential life skills and improve their overall functioning and quality of life.
Q2: How does the ABA therapy process work?
A2: The process typically begins with a comprehensive assessment to understand the child's current skills, challenges, and goals. Based on this assessment, a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) develops a personalized treatment plan. This plan outlines specific, measurable goals and the strategies to achieve them. Our trained therapists then implement these strategies during one-on-one sessions, using data collection to track progress and make necessary adjustments to the plan over time.
Q3: What ages do you work with?
A3: We primarily work with children, typically from toddlers (around 2-3 years old) up to adolescents (around 18 years old). Our program is designed to meet the developmental needs of this age range, focusing on building foundational skills and promoting independence.
Q4: What can I expect during a therapy session?
A4: Sessions are tailored to the individual child's needs and goals. They may involve structured teaching activities, play-based learning, discrete trial training, natural environment teaching, or focused behavior support. Therapists use positive reinforcement (like praise, tokens, or preferred items) to encourage desired behaviors and skills. The environment is designed to be engaging and supportive, allowing the child to learn effectively.
