At ABA Therapy by HERE Consulting, our core belief is simple yet profound: our goal is to guide your child towards success and happiness that is meaningful to them. We understand that every child is unique, with their own strengths, challenges, and pathways to fulfillment. Our dedicated team of experienced therapists works collaboratively with children, parents, and caregivers to create a personalized journey focused on building essential skills and fostering positive behaviors.
ABA Therapy is a scientific approach grounded in learning principles. It focuses on understanding how behavior is influenced by the environment and how these influences can be strategically used to bring about meaningful change. Our therapists conduct thorough assessments to identify specific areas of need and develop highly individualized treatment plans. These plans target goals across various domains, including communication (verbal and non-verbal), social skills, adaptive living skills (daily routines, self-care), play skills, and reducing challenging behaviors.
We believe that success and happiness look different for every child. Our approach is therefore tailored, ensuring that interventions are relevant, engaging, and focused on building skills that will empower your child to navigate their world successfully and express joy in ways that are authentic to them. We are committed to creating a supportive and nurturing environment where children feel safe to learn and grow.
Whether you're seeking support for your child's communication development, social integration, or behavioral management, Here on the Spectrum - ABA Therapy Downtown Vancouver offers expert guidance and compassionate care. We are here to partner with you on this important journey.

ABA, or Applied Behavior Analysis, is a scientific discipline that focuses on understanding how human behavior is affected by the environment. It uses principles of learning to increase positive behaviors and decrease challenging ones. ABA therapy is highly effective for individuals with autism spectrum disorder and other developmental disabilities, helping them acquire skills for communication, social interaction, academics, and daily living activities.
Every child is unique, and so is their therapy plan. At Here on the Spectrum, our process begins with a comprehensive assessment. Our therapists carefully observe your child, gather information from parents and caregivers, and conduct assessments to understand their specific needs, strengths, and learning style. Based on this evaluation, we develop a highly individualized treatment plan with clear, measurable goals tailored specifically to your child's abilities and aspirations.
The duration of ABA therapy varies significantly depending on the child's age, the complexity of their needs, the goals set, and the family's resources. ABA is often intensive, especially for young children, and can involve multiple sessions per week. Treatment plans are regularly reviewed and adjusted based on progress. While therapy can be long-term, many children show significant improvements in skills and behavior over time, leading to positive changes in their quality of life.
ABA therapy sessions are designed to be engaging and focused on learning. A typical session might involve structured teaching in a one-on-one setting, incorporating activities that target specific goals (e.g., teaching a new word, practicing a social skill, or working on a specific task). Therapists use positive reinforcement (praise, tokens, access to preferred items) to encourage desired behaviors and skill acquisition. Sessions are tailored to the child's attention span and interests, making learning more effective and motivating.
We understand that navigating insurance can be complex. While we cannot bill directly through all insurance providers, we work with many extended health benefit plans. We provide detailed invoices and documentation that you can submit to your insurance company for potential reimbursement. We recommend contacting your insurance provider directly to understand your plan's coverage for ABA therapy services before starting treatment. Our administrative team can also assist you with the necessary paperwork.
