Clinical Supports & Medical Coordination
Clinical Supports – The Clinical Department is comprised of a team of Masters-level clinicians and/or BCBAs who have been formally trained in the principles of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA). Each clinician has extensive experience in teaching individuals with developmental disabilities in a variety of settings (home, work, school, etc.).
Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²ÊÖÐÌØÍø is also known for the services provided to people who present with significant behavioral challenges. All treatment is individualized and starts with an attempt to better understand why individuals behave as they do (functional assessment). The primary goal of treatment is to improve socially significant behaviors that are important to families, the individuals themselves, or significant others in their life.
