At Here on the Spectrum - ABA Therapy Downtown Vancouver, we stand as a dedicated partner in the journey towards a brighter future for children navigating the spectrum. Our mission is clear and heartfelt: to guide your child towards success and happiness that is uniquely meaningful to them. We believe every child possesses inherent strengths and potential, and our role is to nurture these, equipping them with the skills and confidence needed to thrive.
Our services, grounded in Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA), are meticulously designed to be personalized. We understand that each child is an individual with distinct needs, challenges, and goals. Therefore, our therapists work collaboratively with you, the parents or guardians, to create a tailored treatment plan. This plan focuses on areas most critical to your child's development and your family's priorities.
ABA therapy, as practiced here, is a scientific approach focused on understanding how behavior is influenced by the environment. We use this knowledge to build skills in areas such as communication (verbal and non-verbal), social interaction, adaptive living skills (like daily routines and self-care), and to reduce challenging behaviors that may impede learning or participation in daily life. Our interventions are data-driven, meaning we continuously monitor progress and adjust strategies to ensure effectiveness.
Our dedicated team of qualified behavior analysts and therapists brings expertise, compassion, and a deep commitment to child development. We prioritize creating a supportive and encouraging environment where children feel safe to learn and grow. We focus not just on measurable outcomes, but on fostering genuine happiness and independence. We empower families with knowledge and strategies to support their child's progress both during therapy sessions and at home.
Choosing Here on the Spectrum means enrolling your child in a program that respects their individuality and focuses relentlessly on building a foundation for a fulfilling life. We are here to walk alongside you, providing expert guidance and unwavering support every step of the way.

Q1: What is ABA Therapy?
ABA, or Applied Behaviour Analysis, is a scientific discipline focused on understanding how human behavior is affected by the environment. It involves identifying specific behaviors, analyzing the factors that influence them (antecedents and consequences), and implementing strategies to increase desired behaviors (like communication or social skills) and decrease challenging ones. The goal is to improve social, communication, and learning skills, leading to greater independence and quality of life.
Q2: How does the assessment process work?
The journey typically begins with an initial consultation where our team discusses your child's history, concerns, and goals. This is followed by a comprehensive assessment, which may include direct observation of your child, interviews with parents and caregivers, and standardized assessments. This thorough evaluation helps us understand your child's unique profile and informs the development of a highly individualized treatment plan.
Q3: How long does ABA therapy typically last?
The duration of ABA therapy varies significantly depending on the child's age, specific needs, severity of presenting challenges, and the goals set with the family. ABA is often a long-term intervention, particularly for foundational skills. However, progress is typically measured continuously, and goals are reviewed regularly. Many children show significant gains within the first year or two of consistent therapy, and the intensity and focus of services may decrease over time as skills are mastered.
Q4: What ages do you work with?
We primarily work with children from toddlers (typically around 2-3 years old) through adolescence (up to around 18 years old). Early intervention is often highly effective, so we strongly encourage families to reach out and learn more as soon as they suspect their child may benefit from ABA therapy.
Q5: Do you accept insurance?
We strive to accommodate families navigating insurance coverage. While direct insurance billing varies by plan and provider, we can assist you in understanding potential coverage options. We recommend contacting your insurance provider directly to inquire about ABA therapy benefits. We can also provide detailed invoices that may be submitted for potential reimbursement. Please contact our office for specific information regarding your insurance plan.
