Fox Valley Autism Treatment Program

We offer diagnostic evals, ABA, respite, social skills group, and fun community events, such as our Halloween Event and our Christmas Event. Our psychologists and therapists have years of hands on experience and training in a variety of treatment approaches to help children with autism spectrum disorders. One of the most important treatments we offer is ABA – Applied Behavior Analysis. ABA is a treatment approach with strong data supporting its effectiveness. Private insurance and the Medicaid waiver, our two major funding sources, require that treatment be “evidence-based”, and ABA has more research support than any other approach. With ABA, we teach skills and reduce problem behaviors in children of all ages with autism, Asperger’s syndrome and pervasive developmental disorder. It is highly individualized, meaning your child’s therapy is customized to his/her abilities, challenges and motivations. With ABA, we identify and work to improve specific concerns with:
communication, self care and independent daily living skills, social skills, behavior problems and “meltdowns”, sensory problems and oversensitivity to touch, noise and other stimuli and other issues, attention, transitions, generalization of skills.Delivered properly, ABA is positive, flexible, measurable and empowering for kids and their families. Our team of psychologists and therapists have been studying and using this approach for many years, with great success.
