Individualized Tailored Treatment for Your Child’s Needs

At Beyond the Spectrum ABA Therapy (BTS), we believe that every child is unique, and that’s why each treatment plan is fully customized to meet your child’s specific needs and goals. Our personalized approach takes into account your child’s strengths, challenges, and developmental stage, ensuring that both therapy activities and the recommended therapy hours are designed to optimize their growth and progress.

Our mission is to maximize your child’s development and encourage their independence in every aspect of their life. While treatment plans may vary, it is crucial to prioritize consistent attendance at ABA sessions to achieve the best outcomes. Just like any therapeutic program, the frequency and intensity of therapy sessions are essential to success.

Here are several key reasons why following the recommended therapy hours is vital to helping your child thrive:

Maximizing Development and Encouraging Independence

Just as a doctor’s prescription must be followed for the best results, so too must the recommended hours and sessions of ABA therapy. Skipping sessions or reducing hours may result in slower progress and can hinder your child’s ability to develop crucial skills. Consistent therapy gives children the chance to practice and reinforce new skills, making it easier for them to gain independence over time. Children on the autism spectrum often need more opportunities to practice new behaviors and coping strategies, which is why regular therapy hours and participation in recommended sessions are essential to their development.

Efficient Use of Resources and Time

By committing to the recommended number of therapy hours and sessions, you maximize the effectiveness of your time and investment. While intensive therapy may seem like a higher upfront cost investment, it often results in greater long-term benefits. Fewer hours can mean slower progress, which may extend the overall time in treatment. By investing in full therapy hours, you’re not only accelerating progress but also setting your child up for greater independence in the future. This proactive approach allows your child to develop the skills they need to succeed with greater autonomy.

Achieving Targeted Goals and Building Independence

Each child’s treatment plan is designed with specific, measurable goals in mind—goals that are meant to be achieved over a set number of therapy hours and sessions. When therapy hours are reduced, your child may not be able to meet all of their targeted goals within the expected timeframe. For example, a child receiving the full 40 hours per week could achieve 20-30 targeted goals in six months, leading to greater skills and independence. Reducing therapy hours may limit progress, delaying the time it takes for your child to gain independence in everyday activities.

Preventing Burnout for Both Child and Therapist

Consistency is essential to effective learning and progress. When children miss sessions or attend fewer hours than recommended, they often have to revisit previous topics, which can be frustrating for both the child and the therapist. For the child, this repeated review may feel like a setback, making it harder to stay motivated and engaged. For the therapist, it can be challenging to maintain enthusiasm and momentum when progress is stalled. By attending at least 90% of the recommended sessions, children can build on their prior successes without unnecessary repetition, which helps maintain their motivation and confidence. This consistency not only accelerates learning but also helps prevent burnout for both children and therapists, ensuring a more positive and productive therapy experience.

The Power of Early Intervention for Independent Growth

Research shows that early intervention is particularly effective for young children, as they are more flexible in learning new skills and adapting behaviors. At Beyond the Spectrum ABA Therapy (BTS), we use naturalistic and play-based techniques that blend therapy into everyday activities, making it easier for your child to develop the skills they need in real-world settings. This approach not only makes learning fun but also promotes independence, allowing your child to apply what they’ve learned in the home, school, and community. The earlier we can intervene, the better equipped your child will be to achieve lasting independence.

School Readiness Program

Our school readiness program is designed to prepare children with autism for a successful transition into preschool, kindergarten, or a structured classroom setting. Using evidence-based ABA strategies, we focus on building the foundational skills needed for classroom success, including following group instructions, improving focus and attention span, increasing independence, enhancing peer interactions, and developing communication and coping strategies.

At our center, we’ve created a dedicated classroom space that mimics real-life academic and school settings. This gives children the opportunity to practice and adapt to the structure, routines, and social dynamics they will encounter in school, all within a supportive and familiar environment.

Is Your Child Ready for the Transition?

We understand that the transition to school can bring about a mix of emotions , excitement, worry, and uncertainty , not just for children, but for parents too. That’s why we’re committed to walking this journey with you every step of the way.

Our team works closely with families and, when needed, school professionals to promote a smooth and supported transition. We don’t just prepare your child academically and socially; we also support parents through open communication and hands-on guidance.

From day one, we begin building foundational skills that support school readiness, helping children gain confidence, independence, and emotional resilience. Each child is assessed individually to determine when they’re ready to transition into our classroom-based setting, which mirrors real academic environments. Once ready, we gradually introduce them to structured routines and classroom expectations at a pace that suits their developmental needs. And when the time comes to make the transition, we’re right there, coordinating with schools, supporting teachers, and ensuring your child is set up for success.

You’re not alone in this. With Beyond The Spectrum ABA Therapy, your child is prepared, your family is supported, and the transition is made easier for everyone.

Why Tilt Desks Make a Difference

Tilt desks offer unmatched versatility. Their tiltable desktops make handwriting and fine motor activities easier and more comfortable.

By adjusting the surface angle, children can view their materials at the right height and angle, supporting better focus, independence, and participation in learning activities.

Each desk pairs with an adjustable, contoured chair that promotes healthy posture and can be customized to each child's size and needs.
