Decades of Innovation

For more than 25 years, Quest Kids Therapy has specialized in supporting children and teens with Autism spectrum disorder, Down syndrome, learning delays and related disabilities using applied behavior analysis (ABA).

ABA is recommended by the U.S. Surgeon General and the American Academy of Pediatrics and is now covered by Medicaid and certain private health insurance plans.

We Offer Expert Guidance in:

  • Early intervention services for Autism Spectrum Disorders
  • Toilet training & personal hygiene
  • Motor skills development
  • Communication
  • Social skills development
  • Life skills development
  • Health and safety

About the Program

Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) is used to develop a variety of skills that will help children reach milestones throughout their lives. ABA can also decrease behaviors that interfere with learning and daily living. Program elements are customized to the child’s unique skills, needs, interests, preferences, goals and desires in collaboration with family.

Complex skills are broken down into small steps allowing the child to learn a specific skill in stages.

Individual steps are taught using prompts, which are gradually eliminated as the steps are mastered.

When the child demonstrates the desired response, he or she receives positive reinforcement which strengthens that behavior and allows for continued success.

Our Quest Kids’ board certified behavior analysts systematically tracks and evaluates their progress throughout the entire process.

Through the principles of ABA, kids are able to learn skills which will help them achieve greater independence for a more successful future.
