Behavioral Services & Support
ComWell is pleased to now offer Applied Behavior Analytic Services and Supports to our community. Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) is a therapy based on the science of learning and behavior. ABA is considered an evidence-based best practice treatment by the US Surgeon General and by the American Psychological Association. Behavior Analysis helps us to understand how behavior works, how behavior is affected by the environment, and how learning takes place. ABA therapy applies our understanding of how behavior works to real life situations. The goal is to increase behaviors that are helpful and appropriate and decrease behaviors that are harmful or affect learning. ABA services are not a “one size fits all” but rather, developed to meet the individual needs of the person. ABA is effective for people of all ages. It can be used from early childhood through adulthood! Services are provided by a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA). Service delivery can occur across environments, such as at home, in the community, school, or community day services.
