PALS ABA was founded on the core principle that ABA treatment should be clinically driven and client outcomes should be assessed by trained clinicians with collaborative support from family partnership. Founded by clinicians with nearly a decade of experience in the field of ABA and early intervention, the idea was simple: Place client well-being as an integral focus of the treatment model.
Our Values:
As an essential aspect to our care model, our clinical team proposed the idea of providing in a manner that considers the families we serve and the lives of those young children. Our values are centered around the concept that ABA should be F.R.I.E.N.D.L.Y!

What is ABA?
Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) is a therapeutic approach proven to help individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and other developmental delays. It focuses on increasing desirable behaviors while decreasing harmful or interfering ones through scientifically based techniques. Our center-based model offers structured learning environments that enhance the effectiveness of ABA interventions.
Benefits of Center-Based Model:
- Structured and supportive environment
- Access to specialized equipment and resources
- Opportunities for social interaction and skill generalization
- Consistent monitoring and assessment by trained professionals
Supporting Statistics
Recent data reveals that autism spectrum disorder (ASD) affects approximately 1 in 54 children in the United States, underlining its significance as one of the fastest-growing developmental disorders. Early intervention plays a pivotal role as studies consistently demonstrate that children who receive early intensive behavioral intervention (EIBI) exhibit notable enhancements in communication, social skills, and adaptive behaviors.
Emphasizing the urgency of early identification and intervention, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) stress that initiating therapy before the age of 5 yields superior long-term outcomes for individuals with ASD. ABA therapy stands out as a cornerstone intervention, supported by research published in the Journal of Pediatrics, showcasing its effectiveness in improving cognitive function, language development, and social interaction skills among children with ASD
