At Helping Hands ABA, Alaska LLC we know that family support is essential to your child’s success, so we provide Parent Training to set you all up for the best possible outcome. We work closely with each family, creating individualized treatment plans which teach the specific skills each child needs to live a happy and healthy life.

Through our training, you will gain a better understanding of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), empowering you to work more effectively and efficiently inside and outside the home. We support you and educate you on improving skills based specifically on your child’s diagnosis.

With ongoing supervision from an Alaska-licensed behavior Analyst, we also help family members deal with the stress that can accompany the many challenges that exist with ASD. To that end, we offer one-on-one, in-home parent training as well as parental support groups. What’s more, this essential training and support will be available to you as part of the ABA program.

We offer Social Skills Training in both small and larger group settings which cover:

• Initiating conversations
• Greetings
• Appropriate eye contact
• How to behave in specific social and community settings
• Understanding emotions and facial expressions
• Gestures and body language
• Assertiveness
• Empathy

Social Skills Training programs vary based on age and level of functioning. Your personally assigned Behavior Analyst will work with your family to determine the appropriate social skills to target.
