What Is Therapy for Autism?
Since there are no cures for autism, it is controlled using therapies and support. Several therapies can help children with autism improve their abilities and reduce their symptoms or behaviors that can make their life more challenging. Early life treatments are more helpful as it aids in the development of their brain and allows children to learn how to correct different behaviors early on. While starting therapy for autism early is beneficial, it is never too late to start.
Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA)
ABA discourages negative behaviors and promotes positive behaviors by improving a variety of skills. This is an evidence-based framework for addressing the needs of students with autism in an educational environment. The child’s progress is tracked and measured. At Autism Academy, our educational curriculum is based on the principle of ABA.
Speech Therapy
Speech therapy focuses on all aspects of communication. Speech therapy assists children with speech, language, and social pragmatic skills. For example, we use picture symbols, sign language, or computers to help children speak. At Autism Academy, our goal is to help children with forming relationships, communicating wants and needs both verbally and nonverbally, initiating communication, and developing skills needed to engage in reciprocal conversation.
Occupational Therapy
This kind of therapy helps with activities of daily life. Occupational therapy can help students improve their motor skills and allow them to improve their functional skills needed for everyday life. Our goal is to help students perform tasks that require motor skills, provide sensory activities that promote development, and more.
