At SambaABA, we understand the profound impact that Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy can have on the lives of individuals with developmental challenges. Our mission is to provide top-notch, evidence-based ABA services tailored to meet the unique needs of each client, empowering them to achieve their fullest potential. With a dedicated team of professionals and a client-centered approach, SambaABA is a trusted partner for families navigating the challenges of developmental and behavioral conditions.
Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) is a scientifically validated therapy approach designed to improve socially significant behaviors. It is most commonly used for individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), though its principles can benefit those with other developmental conditions. ABA therapy focuses on understanding the relationship between behavior and the environment, teaching skills, and reducing behaviors that interfere with learning and daily life.
Key components of ABA therapy include:
Behavioral Assessment: Understanding the client’s needs through detailed observation and data collection.
Goal Setting: Developing measurable objectives to improve specific behaviors or skills.
Intervention Plans: Creating personalized strategies that utilize positive reinforcement and other evidence-based techniques.
Progress Monitoring: Regularly assessing progress and adapting strategies to ensure optimal outcomes.
At SambaABA, we prioritize a collaborative approach, ensuring that families are an integral part of the therapy process.
SambaABA stands out as a leader in ABA therapy services due to our commitment to excellence, individualized care, and a compassionate approach. Here are some reasons why families trust us:
Highly Trained Professionals: Our team of Board-Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs), Registered Behavior Technicians (RBTs), and therapists possess extensive training and experience in ABA therapy. They are passionate about helping clients reach their potential through innovative and effective techniques.
Individualized Treatment Plans: We understand that every individual is unique. SambaABA creates customized therapy plans based on thorough assessments, ensuring that goals and interventions align with the client’s strengths, needs, and preferences.
Family-Centered Approach: At SambaABA, we believe that families play a crucial role in the success of ABA therapy. We provide training and support for parents and caregivers, enabling them to reinforce positive behaviors and skills at home and in the community.

Comprehensive Services: SambaABA offers a wide range of services, from early intervention for young children to support for adolescents and adults. Our goal is to address the diverse needs of our clients throughout their developmental journey.
At SambaABA, we offer a variety of services to address the unique needs of our clients:
Early intervention is critical for children diagnosed with developmental delays or autism. Our early intervention programs focus on foundational skills, including communication, social interaction, and adaptive behaviors. By addressing these areas early, we can significantly improve long-term outcomes.
Social skills are essential for building relationships and navigating daily life. SambaABA provides structured social skills training to help clients develop:
Effective communication
Turn-taking and sharing
Conflict resolution
Understanding social cues
For individuals with limited verbal abilities, we utilize Functional Communication Training to teach alternative communication methods. This might include sign language, picture exchange communication systems (PECS), or augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) devices.
Problematic behaviors can interfere with learning and social interactions. Our therapists use positive behavior support strategies to address behaviors such as:
Aggression
Self-injury
Tantrums
Non-compliance
We empower families with the knowledge and skills to support their loved ones. Through hands-on training, parents and caregivers learn to apply ABA principles in real-world settings, fostering consistency and reinforcing progress.
SambaABA collaborates with schools to provide ABA services in educational settings. These services include behavior intervention plans (BIPs), classroom support, and training for teachers and staff.
As clients grow, their needs evolve. We assist adolescents and young adults in developing life skills, preparing for employment, and achieving greater independence.
Our therapy process is designed to ensure a seamless and effective experience for clients and families:
Initial Consultation: We begin with a comprehensive consultation to understand the client’s needs and goals. This includes discussions with families and, if applicable, educators or other professionals.
Assessment: Our BCBAs conduct detailed assessments using tools like the VB-MAPP (Verbal Behavior Milestones Assessment and Placement Program) or ABLLS-R (Assessment of Basic Language and Learning Skills-Revised).
Individualized Plan Development: Based on the assessment, we create a customized therapy plan with clear, measurable goals.
Implementation: Therapy sessions are conducted in various settings, such as the client’s home, school, or our clinic. Our therapists work closely with families to ensure consistency and effectiveness.
Progress Monitoring: We regularly review progress, adjust goals, and modify interventions to ensure ongoing success.
Generalization: Skills learned during therapy are applied to real-world settings, ensuring lasting impact and independence.
At SambaABA, we celebrate the achievements of our clients. From a child learning to communicate for the first time to a teenager developing independence, every milestone is a testament to the transformative power of ABA therapy. Families consistently share stories of hope, progress, and renewed confidence in their loved ones.
