Holidays, including Halloween, can be a daunting time for children with autism. Suddenly, they are inundated with new sights, sounds, and activities that often include changes in their typical routine. It’s perfectly okay to sit out any activity that is more stressful than exciting. However, if your child is interested in participating, there are ways to play ahead and incorporate ABA strategies that make things less stressful and more fun while building important skills.

When researching and discussing Applied Behavioral Analysis (ABA), you’ll likely run into the same terms over and over. If these are terms you’re unfamiliar with, it can feel daunting and intimidating to sit through meetings or browse a treatment plan without fully understanding what they mean. Here, we will break down the most common terms to help you make sense of them all! 

We at Bloom Behavioral Healthcare are always learning and growing, constantly aware of the conversations surrounding autism . We’re committed to staying current with peer-reviewed scientific research, not trends or politics. If you have questions about the intricacies of autism, the science behind it, and how ABA therapy is set up to help your family, please feel free to contact us. We’re happy to engage in a conversation, answer your questions, and see if we’re right for your family!
