Our Autism Treatment Approach
Helping Hands Family provides autism therapy in Penn Hills that is both clinically proven and family-friendly. To offer the best quality care, our autism services are based on:
- Early intervention for children ages 0–6, when progress can be most impactful.
- Play-based learning that keeps sessions engaging and enjoyable.
- 1:1 and group sessions to build skills individually and then practice them socially.
At our Penn Hills clinic, we use Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy, the most trusted and widely used approach for autism treatment. ABA helps children learn new skills step by step while encouraging positive behaviors in a supportive, engaging way. Our goal is simple: to help your child build confidence, independence, and meaningful skills that improve their everyday life.
Why ABA Therapy?
Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy is the gold-standard treatment for autism, supported by decades of research and recognized by leading organizations such as:
- U.S. Surgeon General
- American Academy of Pediatrics
- American Psychological Association
ABA therapy is effective because it:
- Breaks down learning into small, achievable steps.
- Uses positive reinforcement to encourage progress.
- Adapts over time to meet your child’s changing needs.
- Focuses on real-world skills that benefit home, school, and community life.
At our Penn Hills clinic, ABA therapy isn’t just clinical, it’s designed to spark joy in learning. Our Helping Hands Family clinical team centers autism treatment on three core pillars.
- Child-led therapy – Following each child’s interests to keep sessions motivating and meaningful.
- Play-based sessions – Using games and fun activities to make learning enjoyable and natural.
- Positive reinforcement – Encouraging progress with praise, rewards, and celebration of achievements.
These pillars guide every session at our Penn Hills clinic, creating an autism therapy experience that feels supportive, engaging, and effective.
Benefits of ABA Therapy:
ABA therapy is widely recognized as the most effective, evidence-based treatment for children with autism. Its structured yet flexible approach allows kids to build skills at their own pace while making progress that lasts. Key benefits of ABA therapy include:
- Improved communication – Helps children express their needs, wants, and feelings more effectively.
- Stronger social skills – Builds confidence in connecting and interacting with peers, siblings, and adults.
- Better focus and attention – Supports learning in school and daily routines.
- Reduction of challenging behaviors – Encourages positive alternatives that make life easier at home and in the community.
- Increased independence – Teaches practical skills that help children gain confidence in everyday activities.
With these benefits, ABA therapy equips children with the building blocks they need to thrive at home, in school, and in social settings. If our Penn Hills clinic is too far, we also offer autism therapy in Monroeville, PA.
