Comprehensive ABA Assessments in Utah
ABA therapy has long been the standard for encouraging growth and development in autistic children. But if you are a parent exploring options, you might be wondering–is it all the same? Will my child be placed in a cookie-cutter program with generic goals and one-size-fits-all strategies? Nothing could be further from the truth! Real, effective ABA therapy is about custom interventions that are shaped around your child’s needs. That is exactly where ABA assessments come in.
At Arlo ABA, we begin every ABA therapy plan with thorough ABA assessments for children. No two children are the same and no two therapy plans should be either. By gathering insights, we design custom ABA therapy in Utah that truly fits your child. Whether it is identifying triggers or understanding how your child best responds to praise and support, our behavior assessments for ABA lay the groundwork for targeted, compassionate care.
Behavior Assessments in ABA Therapy
When considering custom ABA therapy, one of the most crucial steps in creating meaningful progress begins with understanding your child on a deeper level. That is where ABA assessments come in–and why they matter more than you might realize.
Through our ABA assessments for children in Utah, we do not simply get to know your child, we get a better picture of how your child sees the world. This helps us gather insights that enable us to create custom ABA therapy that is targeted and effective.
Our skilled therapists use behavior assessments in ABA to uncover:
- Your child’s unique learning style
- Behavioral patterns that should be addressed
- Your child’s communication preferences
- What motivates your child
- Strengths and areas for growth
- How your child responds to praise
- Which environmental factors are a trigger
- The list goes on!

ABA Therapy with Arlo
Our simple enrollment process ensures you can focus on what matters: helping your child thrive.
Family Guidance
Families and guardians are an essential part of any ABA therapy program and need to be active in the treatment process. Family Guidance is a core part of what we do at Arlo. We require biweekly sessions between guardians and their dedicated BCBA where there’s continued discussions and teachings on how to generalize what’s being done during center hours to their lives at home and in the community.
Highly-trained and Consistent Staff
Children on the Spectrum benefit from a strong continuity of care, so professionals with practical experience and a dedication to the field are essential. Consistency in the therapist is an important factor in the success of an ABA program, and we really focus on this with our team and our clients
Unique Data-Driven ABA Programs
Some children on the Autism Spectrum are non-verbal and need to develop ways to communicate. Others are very verbal, and their main delays are in repetitive behaviors, self-injurious behaviors, or social skills. Every child is unique, and a BCBA must thoroughly assess a child before developing a program to address these deficits.
Together, we’re building a future filled with growth, possibilities, and hope.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does Arlo provide guidance for parents?
Yes. Parental involvement in treatment is crucial for any child who is enrolled at Arlo. All caregivers or parents with children in our program will participate in recurring Family Guidance sessions to ensure you are receiving the necessary support to help your child progress.
Will my insurance cover ABA therapy?
Each insurance plan is different and must be thoroughly evaluated to determine whether or not coverage for ABA is provided. Our staff is happy to help you navigate the insurance process.
How will ABA Therapy help my child?
ABA therapy will address the developmental needs identified during an initial assessment of your child’s abilities across language, social and behavioral domains. An individualized teaching plan will be created to target any area of need, but common goals include learning to ask for help, learning to follow classroom instructions, and how to use language across a variety of settings.
Other important target areas of ABA include social skills, play skills, potty training, self-care skills (brushing teeth, washing hands, etc.), and day-to-day living skills (independently getting dressed, following safety instructions, etc.).
