Skills Shape ABA is a unique, evidence-based training program designed especially for parents; it's a revolutionary blend of evidence-based ABA principles integrated with mindfulness and consciousness learning. Unlike traditional ABA programs, our approach emphasizes a combination of both ABA principles and consciousness/mindfulness learning. This integrated approach ensures that children receive consistent, holistic support from caregivers at home.

While the core of our approach is geared towards children, we've tailored consciousness learning especially for caregivers, recognizing the complexities and demands of parenting.

What truly sets Skills Shape ABA apart is our dual focus. Traditional ABA programs predominantly center on behavior analysis. In contrast, we seamlessly meld this with a consciousness learning approach. This integration addresses your child's behavioral challenges and equips caregivers with techniques to elevate their well-being and resilience through mindfulness practices.

By choosing Skills Shape ABA, you ensure your child benefits from evidence-based behavioral strategies. Simultaneously, as caregivers, you receive training in mindfulness techniques that can reshape your mindset, influencing your reactions to your child's behaviors and making your parenting journey more fulfilling and enjoyable.

Without a doubt! Skills Shape ABA is adaptable and specifically designed to work in harmony with other interventions your child may be receiving. Our unique blend of mindfulness and consciousness learning can amplify the positive outcomes of other therapies. Furthermore, our dedicated ABA professionals actively collaborate with other specialists to ensure a cohesive and comprehensive approach, reinforcing positive behaviors during therapeutic sessions and everyday home routines. This collaboration ensures your child benefits from an integrated, all-encompassing support system.

Children gain a deeper understanding of their emotions and triggers by introducing consciousness learning and mindfulness. For caregivers, these techniques are transformative. They foster a heightened self-awareness, helping caregivers navigate parenting challenges with greater ease, patience, and understanding. This dual approach ensures that the child and caregiver benefit from improved emotional regulation and resilience.

Mindfulness exercises in our program are thoughtfully crafted to align with a child's age and ability, ensuring they are both engaging and beneficial. For our younger learners, we introduce simple yet effective techniques such as deep breathing, counting from 10 to 1, reflecting on age-appropriate stories and scenarios, and teaching them various coping strategies tailored to their developmental level. Simultaneously, caregivers are empowered with tools and strategies to approach challenging behaviors through mindfulness. This dual approach ensures that both the child and caregiver are equipped with skills to navigate the complexities of their journey with confidence and tranquility.

We recognize that parents are integral to a child's development journey. Apart from training sessions, we provide continuous support, resources, and feedback. Our unique notebook system also helps parents track progress, note challenges, and celebrate milestones, ensuring they're actively involved every step of the way.
