What is ABA Therapy & How Does it Work?
Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy is a highly effective autism therapy that focuses on understanding how a child’s behavior is influenced by their environment. By studying these behaviors, we create strategies that can lead to positive changes. ABA therapy helps children develop essential skills and thrive in everyday life. It is considered the gold standard of autism treatment and is endorsed by:
- US Surgeon General
- American Psychological Association

A Personalized Approach to Autism Treatment
At Helping Hands Family, we understand that every child is unique with their own:
- Approach to learning
- Motivations
- Strengths
- Challenges
That’s why the first step in our ABA therapy approach is a thorough assessment by one of our therapists. This helps us understand your child’s specific needs, so we can create a treatment plan that’s customized just for them!
Driven by Positive Reinforcement
A core part of ABA therapy is using positive reinforcement to encourage good behaviors and reduce challenging ones. We reward the positive to help kids build lasting, helpful habits.
At Helping Hands Family in Frederick, MD, we understand that anger and punishment don’t help kids with autism. That’s why we’ve created a safe, supportive environment where children can learn, grow, and thrive without fear of judgment. Our therapy sessions are child-led and play-based to ensure children stay interested and engaged!
