Our main focus is on children ages birth through 13 years of age. The majority of our clients have received a diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder, however some funding sources offer coverage for individuals exhibiting qualifying behaviors and alternative diagnoses. Griffin Behavioral Solutions believes it is important to provide attention and training to caregivers, in addition to the client. Caregivers can include extended family members, teachers, and other therapists in addition to those living with the client. Caregivers are the lifetime teachers to the client and providing skills to the caregiver that will provide the client with a lifetime of learning opportunities.
What we do:All services provided by Griffin Behavioral Solutions are based on the principles of Applied Behavior Analysis. All intervention goals target developmentally appropriate behaviors/skills that will impact the client's daily independence. A Comprehensive Treatment Model focuses on multiple aspects of a client's skill deficits and behavioral excesses. On occasion a Focused Treatment Plan will be developed to address a single area of concern. Methodology behind the implementation of program treatment goals includes Errorless Learning, Functional Communication Training, Verbal Behavior, Antecedent Based Behavior Modification, Chaining/Shaping Procedures, and the use of reinforcement implemented utilizing Discrete Trial Training. Direct implementation of programs are provided by qualified individuals specifically trained on the implementation of each client's individualized plan. All caregivers are required to commit to regularly scheduled hours of caregiver training focused on ABA theory and implementation utilizing Behavior Skill Training methodology.
