About Us
Our Values: We want to honor God in all of our work. What that means is that we strive to serve our clients with integrity, honesty, and the highest level of quality. We also strive to treat our employees in a way that recognizes their skills and passion for this incredibly important field. Put another way, we want to be the kind of company where employees feel appreciated, respected, and where they can grow.
Why we exist: Treasured Hearts ABA was established to offer quality applied behavior analysis (ABA) to families. Our staff of professionals are passionate about helping children. We believe that every child is a “treasured heart” who deserves the best quality service we can provide, which is why we only hire highly skilled analysts and therapists who love their work!
ABA Services
Applied Behavior Analysis: Each program is developed by a Board Certified Behavior Analyst, who after spending considerable time assessing your child, will develop, apply, and oversee a program to increase positive behaviors, communication, social skills, adaptive learning, and other needs. A Registered Behavior Therapist (RBT) will apply the specialized program with your child –one-on-one. Additionally, we provide training to parents and caregivers on how to utilize ABA strategies and techniques with their child.
