Five stars is not even enough to rate them. My son has been going there since he was 2. He started out nonverbal, limited eye contact, limited social skills and missed a lot of his milestones. Fast forward 4 years later and he is a social butterfly, won’t stop talking and surpasses everything that is asked of him. I know we would not be where we are today without the help of the Cultivate team! We love them!

ABA Services near Killeen TX

Clinic-Based Services

Our ABA clinic provides a structured and nurturing environment for children to develop essential developmental and age-appropriate skills. Through a combination of play–based and adult–directed activities, children learn communication, daily living, pre-academic, and social readiness. Our experienced team facilitates these sessions, helping your child build independence and confidence in a setting that mirrors real-world scenarios. Clinic–based service models include regular parent and caregiver training to maximize learning opportunities outside of structured ABA Therapy sessions.

In-Home Services

In-home ABA therapy services target socially significant skills within the home environment. This approach targets communication, daily routines, and addresses specific challenges like communication, activities of daily living, and behavior management within a familiar home environment. Our team works closely with families to create personalized interventions, so we enhance engagement and foster independence within the home setting. Home–based service models include regular parent and caregiver training to maximize learning opportunities outside of structured ABA Therapy sessions.

ABOUT ABA THERAPY

Why Choose ABA Therapy in Killeen

What Is ABA Therapy?

Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy is a research-backed approach for promoting meaningful behavioral change in children with autism. ABA therapy focuses on developing skills in areas like communication, social interactions, and daily living, with a goal of encouraging independence and enhancing quality of life.

At Cultivate in Harker Heights, we use evidence-based strategies tailored to each child’s needs. By closely observing behaviors and using positive reinforcement, we help children build skills that will benefit them at home, in school, and beyond.

The Goals of ABA Therapy

ABA therapy’s primary aim is to increase adaptive behaviors and reduce challenging ones. Through techniques such as the ABC model (Antecedent, Behavior, Consequence), our therapists uncover the reasons behind behaviors and create individualized strategies to promote positive change.

For instance, if a child exhibits frustration during transitions, our therapists may introduce visual schedules or structured routines to provide support. Another key method, known as chaining, teaches children complex tasks step-by-step, fostering confidence and independence.

Positive reinforcement is essential in ABA therapy, rewarding desired behaviors to encourage their repetition. This could include verbal praise, tokens, or other motivators that make learning enjoyable and engaging for the child.

Our ABA experts in Harker Heights are equipped to:

  • Perform comprehensive behavior assessments and identify individual goals
  • Teach social, communication, and daily living skills
  • Apply strategies for managing challenging behaviors
  • Collaborate on school and IEP goals when needed

ABA therapy at Cultivate is a dynamic journey. As your child grows and their needs change, our dedicated team is here to provide support through every phase of their development.

The Lasting Benefits of ABA Therapy for Autism

Although there is no cure for autism, ABA therapy has been shown to significantly improve outcomes for children with ASD. Early interventions such as ABA can enhance communication, social, and life skills, laying the foundation for long-term success.
