ABA Therapy
ABA (Applied Behavior Analysis) is the process of systematically applying interventions based upon the principles of learning theory to increase desired behaviors, decrease inappropriate behaviors, teach new skills (language skills, cognitive skills, social skills), and generalize skills to new situations.
ABA uses principles of reinforcement in combination with breaking down complex skills in small units, to set up children for success. At HHS we believe in children having fun learning, and our environment is set up in a fun way, with easily accessible, naturally occurring age-appropriate reinforcers such as toys, gross motor activities, and games.
The programs are developed based on each patient’s needs and constantly monitored and modified by our BCBAs to ensure the fastest and best outcomes. Our programming targets goals for communication, cognition, social, adaptive, and executive functioning skills with a 1:1 ratio for service delivery by trained and experienced RBTs. Ongoing coordination of care with our on-site speech, occupational and physical therapists ensures that our clients receive an effective multidisciplinary intervention.
We offer both part time and full time options for our center based programs.

Additional Services
Physical Therapy
Physical therapists work with children and their families to assist each child in reaching their maximum potential to function independently and to promote active participation in home, school, and community environments. Physical limitations can often be a barrier to learning in other areas of a child’s development and social interactions. Physical therapists have expertise in movement, motor development, and body function and can, when needed, assist in providing adaptive equipment to help the child allow move independently.
Let's Get Started
Speech Therapy
Speech therapists, assess, diagnose, treat, and help to prevent disorders related to speech, language, cognitive-communication, pragmatic, voice, swallowing, and fluency.
Occupational Therapy
Occupational Therapists help kids who have sensory dysregulation, motor, or adaptive delays. They help them do everyday things like eating, putting on clothes, writing, and motor planning to navigate home, school, and community settings.
Developmental Screenings
Developmental screenings are surveillance and monitoring tools used by professionals or trained paraprofessionals to determine if a child’s development is within the normal range. They provide early identification of children at risk for communication, motor, social-emotional, or cognitive delays that may interfere with expected growth, learning, and development and may warrant further diagnosis, assessment, and evaluation.
The results are not diagnostic in nature, but they give insight into whether a child may need further testing. Why are developmental screenings important?
Research shows that early intervention is associated with the highest probability of success in remediating developmental delays and narrowing the developmental gaps between a child and his/her same age group level. Therefore, identifying children who are at risk of developmental delay through various developmental screenings is crucial so that that their needs can be assessed early in their lives.
There are 5 key areas of development that are observed, screened and potentially evaluated:
Gross Motor Skills
Fine Motor Skills
Speech and Language
Cognitive and Intellectual
Social and Emotional Skills
