Who is ABtA?

A Bridge to Achievement is a rapidly growing agency that provides family-centered Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) services, emphasizing the future of children with ASD and their families. Our expert team of Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs) and highly trained behavior technicians use evidence-based ABA methods to teach children social, communication, play, cognitive, and self-care skills, while reducing problem behaviors in a variety of settings based on the family needs.

At ABtA, we understand that ASD has a dramatic and lifelong impact on individuals with this diagnosis and their families. We partner with parents to understand their children by identifying their strengths, interests, and learning styles. Using ABA and other evidence-based techniques, our highly-trained clinicians focus on therapies and interventions that use positive reinforcement to teach the children we support to reach their full potential. We then integrate our services in a variety of settings striving to create the most effective learning experience and promote positive change across all aspects of the lives of the children we serve and their families.
