What is ABA Therapy
Video Summary
Dr. Fein describes the principles of applied behavior analysis (ABA), an empirically supported intervention for children with ASD. To illustrate, ABA therapy sessions are shown.
"...what you need to do is reduce those excesses like the self stimulatory behavior, repetitive behaviors, and increase the skills. And then what will happen is after the child really learns a set of foundational skills; then they will start relating more to other people."
