Who We Are & What We Do
We are Allie & Lindsay, Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBA's) and co-owners of Bright Steps, providing Applied Behavior Analysis support services to children and families on Cape Cod. |
Our Vision:
As innovative service providers, we want to branch out from the strictly curriculum-centered services that are often provided to children requiring behavioral support and teaching. Our goal is to provide truly family-centered support that is tailored to the specific needs of each family and child we work with. We hope to build a supportive community of families who inspire each other on their personal journeys to shining their brightest. What We Do: ABA uses the powers of analysis, measurement, consistency, repeated practice, and reinforcement to produce powerful changes in a client's skills and behavior. Historically, ABA has been pigeon-holed in the realm of Autism treatment; but as professionals in the ABA community, we are not just Autism. ABA is a way of strategically teaching and encouraging skill that all families can benefit from. Autism Specifics: Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is composed of varying degrees of difficulty with and delayed development of social, verbal, and nonverbal communication skills which can encourage the use of challenging behaviors. Due to substantial symptom variability, no two individuals on the ASD spectrum are the same. Those diagnosed with ASD often will not achieve the ability to function independently in the world around them without appropriate medically necessary intervention. Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) is the only teaching methodology for ASD that is backed by decades of empirically validated research. This means it is the only proven treatment to make significant positive impact on those diagnosed with ASD. |
