What Is 1:1 ABA Therapy?
Individualized ABA is a one-on-one model where every goal, activity, and session is tailored to your child's developmental profile. BCBAs target specific skills like communication, behavior management, emotional regulation, and independence at your child's own pace.
One-on-one therapy works especially well for children who need focused attention, have specific behavior challenges, or learn best with minimal distractions. Your BCBA will help you determine if this approach is the right fit during assessment.

FAQs About 1:1 ABA Therapy
What does a 1:1 ABA session look like?
Sessions focus on age-appropriate goals tailored to your child's needs. Your child works one-on-one with a therapist in a setting that matches their comfort level, whether at home, school, or in the community. Activities are individualized and designed to build specific skills like communication, social interaction, and independence.
How does individualized ABA differ from group or classroom-based therapy?
One-on-one therapy provides dedicated attention, allowing the therapist to customize every activity and respond immediately to your child's needs. Group therapy focuses on social skills in a peer setting. Your BCBA can help you determine which approach works best for your child.
How long does it take to see progress with personalized ABA?
Many families notice small improvements within the first few weeks, like better communication during stressful moments or increased willingness to try new activities. Meaningful, lasting progress builds as skills are practiced and reinforced over time.
Can 1:1 therapy be combined with other services like speech or occupational therapy?
Yes. Alpaca providers collaborate with speech therapists, occupational therapists, teachers, and other specialists to create coordinated care plans. Your BCBA will work with your child's full support team to ensure therapy goals align across all services.
How are treatment goals chosen and updated?
Treatment goals are developed collaboratively during the initial assessment based on your child's current abilities, family priorities, and developmental needs. Your BCBA reviews progress regularly and adjusts goals as your child grows and achieves milestones.
