Here on the Spectrum - ABA Therapy Downtown Vancouver, located at 1238 Seymour St, Vancouver, BC V6B 6J3, New York, NY 10001, is dedicated to providing exceptional Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy services. Our mission, spearheaded by HERE Consulting, is clear: to guide your child towards success and happiness that is truly meaningful to them.
ABA therapy is a highly effective, evidence-based treatment designed specifically for individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and other developmental challenges. At Here on the Spectrum, we don't offer a one-size-fits-all approach. Instead, we believe in creating personalized therapy plans tailored to each child's unique needs, strengths, and goals. Our experienced therapists work collaboratively with parents, caregivers, and educators to implement these strategies consistently across different environments.
Our comprehensive ABA services focus on developing crucial life skills, improving communication abilities (both verbal and non-verbal), reducing challenging behaviors, and fostering independence. We address areas such as social skills, academic performance, daily living skills, and emotional regulation. The ultimate aim is to equip children with the tools they need to navigate their world successfully and build a fulfilling life.
We understand that seeking therapy is a significant step, and we are committed to providing compassionate, supportive, and professional care throughout the journey. Our team at Here on the Spectrum Downtown Vancouver is dedicated to making a positive and lasting impact on the lives of the children we serve and their families.

Q1: What is ABA Therapy?
ABA (Applied Behavior Analysis) therapy is a scientific approach that focuses on understanding how behavior is influenced by the environment. It uses principles of learning to increase positive behaviors and decrease challenging ones. ABA therapy is highly individualized and focuses on teaching specific skills (e.g., communication, social interaction, academic skills, self-care) that are meaningful to the child's development and quality of life.
Q2: How do I know if my child needs ABA therapy?
If your child is experiencing challenges with communication, social interaction, repetitive behaviors, sensory sensitivities, or learning new skills, ABA therapy could be beneficial. These challenges often associated with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) are common areas where ABA can provide significant support. Concerns can range from difficulties starting conversations to resistance with daily routines or challenges in school settings. A consultation with our team can help determine if ABA therapy is the right fit for your child.
Q3: What does the ABA therapy process involve?
The process typically begins with an initial assessment or consultation. This involves gathering information about your child's history, current skills, and challenges. Our therapists then conduct observations and assessments to create a comprehensive profile. Based on this, we develop a personalized treatment plan with clear, measurable goals. Therapy sessions are then implemented using techniques proven to be effective in ABA. Regular progress reports and parent training are often part of the process to ensure consistency and celebrate achievements.
Q4: At what age can children receive ABA therapy?
ABA therapy is effective for individuals of all ages, but it is particularly beneficial when started early, often during preschool years (typically ages 2-5). Early intervention can significantly impact developmental trajectories. However, Here on the Spectrum offers ABA services for children of all ages, including school-aged children and adolescents, addressing their specific needs at each developmental stage.
Q5: Are your therapists qualified?
Absolutely. Our therapists are highly qualified professionals, including Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs), Registered Behavior Technicians (RBTs), and experienced therapists. They undergo rigorous training and adhere to ethical practices to ensure the highest standard of care. We prioritize a qualified and compassionate team dedicated to supporting your child's progress.
