Applied Behavior Analysis
ABA Therapy
ABA therapy is an evidence-based treatment designed for individuals with autism and intellectual or developmental disabilities. It helps develop positive behaviors such as communication, social skills, and daily living skills while reducing harmful behaviors. By understanding behavior and environmental influences, we create supportive learning environments that foster long-term independence and success.
At Positive Life & Learning Solutions, we uphold the principles of ABA therapy while prioritizing collaboration with clients, their families, and community resources to achieve the best outcomes. We offer 1:1 therapy and social skills group therapy, along with consultation services.
We also emphasize training for caregivers and professionals, ensuring that those in a client’s immediate environment are equipped with ABA techniques. Additionally, we provide specialized training for schools, daycare facilities, first responders, and medical professionals to enhance understanding and support for individuals with autism and developmental disabilities.

Case Management
Case management in mental and behavioral health is a coordinated approach to providing support and services to individuals with mental health or substance use disorders.

Key Components of Case Management in Mental & Behavioral Health:

Identifying the client’s needs, strengths, and goals, then creating a personalized treatment plan.
Resource Coordination
Connecting clients with mental health services, medical care, housing assistance, employment support, and other community resources.
Advocacy

Monitoring & Follow-Up
Tracking progress, adjusting care plans as needed, and providing ongoing support.
Collaboration
Working with therapists, social workers, healthcare providers, and family members to create a support network.
Case managers help clients navigate complex healthcare and social service systems, improving their ability to manage their conditions and achieve long-term stability.
Speech Therapy
Speech therapy is a specialized treatment designed to help individuals improve their communication skills. It is conducted by speech-language pathologists (SLPs) and/or speech-language pathologists assistants (SLPAs), also known as speech therapists. This therapy can address a wide range of speech and language disorders, including:
- Articulation disorders – Difficulty pronouncing sounds correctly
- Fluency disorders – Issues like stuttering
- Voice disorders – Problems with pitch, volume, or voice quality
- Receptive language disorders – Difficulty understanding language
- Expressive language disorders – Trouble expressing thoughts, ideas, or needs
- Social communication disorders – Challenges in using language appropriately in social situations
- Swallowing disorders (dysphagia) – Problems related to eating and swallowing
Speech therapy involves various techniques such as exercises, interactive activities, and assistive technology to improve speech, language, and communication abilities. It is commonly used for children with developmental delays, individuals recovering from strokes or brain injuries, and people with conditions such as autism, cerebral palsy, or Parkinson’s disease.
