Jaded Lotus ABA

Mission

Our commitment is to provide individuals with disabilities the tools, resources and supports needed to bloom successfully in life. We genuinely believe that everyone is a bud ready to bloom in life, so we are delighted to help nurture the awesome natures that autistic children and adults have. We are especially passionate to help lower-income areas where children are less likely to be diagnosed. 

Vision

To build a community that supports enriching the lives of individuals with disabilities as they obtain the necessary tools, resources, and supports to bloom successfully in life thus producing results that have a constructive impact on the environment.

Clinical ABA most often begins with an autism diagnosis, though some other diagnoses may trigger qualification for ABA services (depending upon insurance provider coverage). The BCBA will conduct an Initial Assessment which requires attendance of the caregiver for a interview type consultation on the phone or online..

The BCBA will then develop a preliminary treatment plan and submit it to the child’s medical doctor for approval. Upon approval, the BCBA will request services from the client’s insurance carrier. Once an insurance authorization is obtained (typically for a six-month period), the Orientation to Services is scheduled and conducted for the client and caregivers. Introduction to the Behavior Technician(s) may occur at the Orientation to Services or shortly thereafter.

A schedule for sessions is determined, typically comprising 10-40 hours/week. Sessions primarily involve a Behavior Technician running programs specified in the treatment plan, documenting data on those programs, and helping parents to understand how to facilitate the client’s progress. Analysts will periodically also attend sessions, both in-person and via video-conference, to oversee Technician performance, observe client progress, and update treatment plans.
