School Training and Consultation: We offer slide show and trainings presented at your school. We also offer 1:1 consultation with your staff on solutions for issues and difficulties they may be having in their classroom. (Private Pay Only)

​​​​​​​​​​​At Behavior Intervention Resources, LLC, we value the importance of targeting the most important skills for them to reach their ultimate potential. Our services include (but are not limited to) providing ABA therapy to those with Autism, ADD/ADHD, Asperger's Syndrome, Pervasive Developmental Disorder, Sensory Processing Disorder, as well as other behavioral or developmental challenges. These services are offered to children 2 years of age to 18 years. We pride ourselves in viewing the children that we see as unique individuals with individual treatment needs, rather than focusing on their diagnosis. Through descriptive and systematic behavioral assessment, we are able to design ethical and effective behavior analytic interventions.​ Parent Training is of high priority so that we can ensure that success is seen not only with us, but at home as well. We offer parent training individually with your child, as well as in group settings on relevant ABA topics and strategies. IMPORTANT NOTE: Your child's ability to receive services are not contingent on their behavior... all of our staff go through Safety Care training and Certification within the first few months of hiring, which enables them to focus on antecedent strategies, de-escalating problematic behavior, and safely handling any aggressive or dangerous behaviors  


School Readiness: Assisting your loved one in their school or our customized environment to increase independent behaviors in these situations 

​​Assessment- Initial & Followup: At the start of services, this outlines your child's strengths & areas of needed improvement in order to suggest goals. Followups identify whether or not the program is yielding adequate improvements and successes.

Functional Analysis: Used primarily to identify trigger(s) and cause(s) behind specific challenging behaviors. A behavior intervention plan will then be developed based on the results on how to best address the challenging behaviors.

Job Opportunities

4. What is ABA Therapy?, What do you do?, What type of therapy do you provide?  

  • ​​ABA stands for Applied Behavior Analysis Therapy. It is a type of therapy that focuses on behavior and how we can change it to make it more appropriate. We focus on decreasing and replacing maladaptive behavior, teaching social skills, school readiness, appropriate transitioning, teaching academic skills, early learner skills, instruction following, gross motor and fine motor, language and communication, and any other age appropriate milestones and skills. Kids receive any where from about 12-40 hours a week of therapy. Most children are one on one at all times with staff while they are here unless their goal specifies otherwise (such as group settings for advanced school readiness skills). We take constant data on their behavior and track their progress so that we can prove definitively that we are being effective. We do individual parent training, and also do group parent training once a month and present a slideshow on topics related to ABA to expand the knowledge of families outside of therapy


5. Can you diagnose my child with Autism? 

  • No, at this time we are not able to diagnose. Once children have a diagnosis we work with kids providing therapy to meet their specific needs. For a diagnosis, please reach out to a qualified Doctor's office or call us for a list of Provider options.
