How Has ABA Therapy Transformed The Lives Of Many?

It might be a good idea to analyze the symptoms of Autism so that you can get started with treatment if necessary. ABA (Applied Behavioral Analysis) is one of the therapies for Autism, and it is most beneficial if one starts it in the early years. Sometimes the symptoms of ASD are visible and sometimes they can be subtle. Here we will take a closer look into the lives of people who went through this therapy and how it shaped them as a person. But before that here are some early symptoms that you must consider:

· No one-word communication till 16 months

· No gestures or babbling by 12 months

· Poor or negligible eye-contact

· No interest in social interaction or sharing interests

· Zero response to voices, sounds or names

What some ABA clients have to say about their Experience with ABA?

“If I hadn’t had access to ABA, then I do not feel that I would have gained this much control over the anger I had. Today even if I feel angry, I know how to control my actions and reactions. Another aspect of life, where ABA shaped me as a person is being socially interactive. Earlier I had very few social skills, and still, I lack them to a certain extent. But it is way better now.

When I was a kid, I struggled with my senses as well because I have some sensory challenges. Back then, I was not even able to walk to the shop because of my heightened senses. But as the therapy went well, I learned to cope up with it. In a nutshell, I would say that without ABA therapy, it was not easy to cope up with the natural challenges I was born with.”
