Behavioral Assessments (Part of the Initial IBHS Assessment)
Hummingbird ABA Therapy offers a variety of assessments for children and adults to determine current skills/abilities and needs, including the Verbal Behavior Milestones and Placement Program (VB-MAPP), the Assessment of Functional Living Skills (AFLS), PEAK, Modified Checklist for Autism in Toddlers (M-CHAT), and the Essential for Living (EFL). In addition, we will conduct a functional behavior analyses (FBA) to determine the causes of problematic behaviors and develop a behavior intervention plan that fits your needs, while building upon or teaching more appropriate behaviors.
Applied Behavior Analysis Therapy
With assessment, program development, and oversight by our BCBA, Hummingbird ABA Therapy offers ABA Therapy in our center or in your home, school, or community settings, as well as via telehealth when needed. ABA services include an individualized treatment plan and a 1:1 behavior health technician (BHT) to work with your child in the settings where they need additional support. ABA therapy is evidence based and typically covered by insurance companies with a behavioral health or metal health diagnosis (such as Autism, ADHD, Conduct Disorder, etc). Hummingbird ABA Therapy uses neurodiversity affirming practices, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Skills Based Treatment (SBT), and trauma informed care. We believe in not just teaching children appropriate skills to reduce unsafe or problematic behaviors, but also teaching self-advocacy and awareness. Your child will work with a team of trained professionals, including a Board certified behavior analyst (BCBA) or a licensed Behavior Consultant (BC-ABA), and either Assistant behavior consultants (ABC) or Behavioral Health Technicians (BHT) to implement their ABA therapy.
