Applied Behavior Analysis
As defined by Baer, Wolf, & Risley, “Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) is the process of systematically applying interventions based upon the principles of learning theory to improve socially significant behaviors to a meaningful degree, and to demonstrate that the interventions employed are responsible for the improvement in behavior.“ Social significant behaviors include skills, such as communication, reading, academics, social skills, and adaptive living skills.

Occupational Therapy

Speech Therapy
Speech language Pathologists (SLPs) work to prevent, assess, diagnose, and treat
speech, language, social communication, cognitive-communication, and
swallowing disorders in children. Speech disorders occur when a person has
difficulty producing speech sounds correctly or fluently (e.g., stuttering is a form
of disfluency) or has problems with his or her voice or resonance.
