At Blossom Children’s Center, the power of play and child-led exploration fuels our innovative, early intervention approach to center-based Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy. Our team leads with a play-based model, infused with natural environment teaching, that fosters growth, joy, and boundless possibilities for children and families navigating developmental challenges. Let’s get into the top five benefits of enter-based ABA therapy…but first what is center-based therapy?
What is Center-Based ABA Therapy?
Center-based ABA therapy offers a structured and supportive environment for autistic children and other developmental disabilities to learn and develop essential skills that can improve their quality of life and functioning in various settings. Depending on your child’s treatment plan, center-based therapy will look different for each child. Blossom Children’s Center offers tailored treatment plans, TWO state-of-the-art facilities (Brighton, MI and Novi, MI) that incorporate several play opportunities and social development in a well-maintained comprehensive ABA therapy setting.
Top Five Advantages of Center-Based Therapy
Individualized Treatment Plans
At Blossom, we honor each child’s unique journey by placing them at the forefront of their therapy experience. Through our play-based approach, we tap into children’s natural curiosity and interests, allowing them to take the lead in their learning and development. Our expert team of BCBAs, RBTs, and behavior technicians collaborate closely with families to craft individualized treatment plans that harness the power of play to target specific goals and milestones, ensuring that therapy feels less like work and more like an adventure tailored to each child’s strengths and needs.
Interdisciplinary Collaboration
In our vibrant and inclusive community at Blossom, collaboration isn’t just encouraged – it’s celebrated. Our interdisciplinary team of professionals, including behavior analysts, speech therapists, occupational therapists, and educators, comes together to create a supportive and expertise plan for each child. Through our play-based model, we seamlessly integrate natural environment teaching into every aspect of therapy, creating meaningful opportunities for children to learn and grow in the contexts that matter most to them – whether it’s at home, at school, or in the community.
Structured Learning Environment
While play may be at the heart of our approach, structure and support are integrated in every interaction at Blossom. Our play-based environment is carefully designed to provide children with the freedom to explore and experiment, while also offering the guidance they need to succeed. Through natural environment teaching, we create authentic learning opportunities that mirror real-life experiences, empowering children to generalize their skills and thrive in any setting they encounter.
Social Skills Development
Play is not just a pastime – it’s a powerful tool for building social connections and fostering meaningful relationships. At Blossom, we recognize the importance of social skills development in every child’s journey, and we infuse our play-based approach with opportunities for social interaction and collaboration. Through group activities, peer play, and structured games, children learn valuable skills such as communication, turn-taking, and sharing, laying the foundation for lifelong friendships and social success.
Family Involvement and Support
At Blossom, we believe that families are our partners, and we’re here to support them every step of the way. Through our play-based model, we empower families to become active participants in their child’s therapy journey, providing them with the tools, resources, and support they need to foster growth and development at home. With parent coaching sessions, we ensure that families feel empowered, informed, and connected as they navigate the ups and downs of their child’s developmental journey.
