Are you looking for structured developmental support for your child? Speak with our certified ABA care coordinator to discuss your child’s specific milestones.

What is ABA Therapy?

Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA) is a scientifically validated, data-driven approach focused on understanding and modifying behaviour. Recognised globally as the gold standard for children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), ADHD, and related developmental conditions, ABA therapy systematically reinforces positive behaviours while reducing communication barriers and frustration.

At Pragyan CDC, we use a compassionate, child-first adaptation of ABA. We do not focus on rigid repetition or forced compliance. Instead, we use your child’s natural interests to break down complex skills like speaking, social interaction, and self-care into small, rewarding milestones.

Targeted ABA Interventions & Core Programs

Our Bangalore ABA centres offer specialised clinical programs tailored to your child’s functional needs:

  • Early Intensive Behavioural Intervention (EIBI): High-impact ABA therapy designed specifically for toddlers and preschoolers (ages 2 to 6). This program capitalises on early neuroplasticity to bridge developmental gaps before school enrollment.

  • Functional Communication Training (FCT): A core ABA technique that replaces challenging behaviours (such as tantrums, aggression, or screaming) with successful alternative communication strategies, including vocalisations, sign language, or AAC devices.

  • Discrete Trial Training (DTT) & Natural Environment Training (NET): We blend structured, focused skill acquisition (DTT) with play-based learning in natural settings (NET) so that skills learned in therapy easily transfer to real-life situations.

  • Behaviour Deceleration Plans: Specialised strategies designed to safely and gently decrease self-stimulatory behaviors, elopement (running away), or intense resistance to daily transitions.

Our ABA Therapy Process

A structured, evidence-based approach designed to help every child achieve meaningful and measurable progress.

1

Functional Behavior Assessment (FBA)

Our experienced behavior analysts conduct direct clinical observations to identify the exact function or cause of your child's behavioral challenges and skill gaps.

2

Data-Driven Behavior Plan (BIP)

We develop an Individualized Education Plan (IEP) and Behavior Intervention Plan (BIP) with clear, measurable goals focused on building functional life skills.

3

One-on-One Therapist Sessions

Your child works directly with a trained behavior technician or child psychologist. Every response, attempt, and success is recorded in real time to monitor progress and learning outcomes.

4

Parent Optimization Training

We teach parents the same prompting, shaping, and reinforcement strategies used in our clinic, helping children maintain and generalize positive behaviors at home and in community settings.

When Should You Consider ABA Therapy?

Every child develops at their own pace, but early behavioral intervention can make a significant difference. If your toddler or young child consistently shows any of the following signs, an ABA assessment may be beneficial.

💬

Communication Gaps

Little to no eye contact, difficulty expressing needs verbally, delayed speech, or not responding to their name by around 12 months.

👥

Social Isolation

Prefers to play alone, avoids interacting with peers, or has difficulty understanding basic social cues and engaging with others.

🔄

Rigid Routines

Experiences extreme emotional distress, anxiety, or severe meltdowns when daily routines or transitions change unexpectedly.

🧩

Repetitive Behaviors

Frequent hand flapping, rocking, spinning objects, or other repetitive movements that interfere with learning and everyday activities.

Inside a Session: A Day in the Life of ABA at Pragyan

At Pragyan, therapy is designed to feel engaging, playful, and rewarding—not like a clinical chore. Every one-on-one ABA session follows a structured routine based on Natural Environment Training (NET), helping children learn meaningful skills through enjoyable activities.

10 Min

🎯 Pairing & Motivation

The therapist begins by joining the child in their favorite activities, such as building blocks, coloring, puzzles, or toy trains. This creates trust, builds rapport, and helps the child develop a positive connection with the therapist and therapy environment.

20 Min

🧩 Structured Skill Trials

Using positive reinforcement, the therapist works on individualized goals from the child's IEP. Activities may focus on speech imitation, identifying colors and objects, following instructions, motor planning, and other functional learning skills.

20 Min

🎲 Natural Play Integration

Learning continues through play-based activities where children practice social interaction naturally—sharing toys, taking turns, requesting items, following group rules, and imitating peers in fun games.

10 Min

🌟 Transition & Cool-down

The session concludes with calming activities, practicing clean-up routines, organizing materials, and smoothly transitioning back to parents. This helps children develop independence while ending every session on a positive note.

Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to the most common questions parents ask about ABA Therapy at Pragyan Child Development Center.

1. Are your ABA therapists certified to practice in Bangalore?
Yes. Our behavioral therapy team includes certified behavior analysts, experienced child psychologists, and trained behavior technicians supervised by qualified clinical directors. Every therapist receives ongoing training in evidence-based ABA practices to deliver high-quality care.
2. Can ABA therapy help my child prepare for school admissions in Bangalore?
Yes. Our School Readiness Program uses ABA principles to develop classroom skills such as following instructions, sitting for activities, listening to teachers, participating in groups, and interacting with peers, helping children transition smoothly into mainstream schools.
3. How does Pragyan's ABA program work with Bangalore schools?
Our ABA team collaborates with Pragyan's Shadow Teaching Program to support children directly in mainstream classrooms. As the child becomes more independent, support is gradually reduced, promoting long-term success in school.
4. Do you offer home-based ABA therapy or center-based sessions?
Pragyan operates multiple therapy centers across Bangalore, making access convenient for families. Core ABA sessions are conducted in structured clinical settings, while parents receive home implementation strategies to reinforce learning in everyday environments.
5. Can my child attend ABA therapy after school?
Absolutely. We offer flexible appointment schedules, including afternoon, evening, and Saturday sessions, allowing children to continue attending school while receiving consistent therapy.
6. Can ABA Therapy be combined with Speech Therapy and Occupational Therapy?
Yes. Pragyan provides Speech Therapy, Occupational Therapy, ABA Therapy, and other developmental services under one roof. Our multidisciplinary team creates a unified Individualized Education Plan (IEP) so every therapy works together toward shared developmental goals.
7. How much does ABA Therapy cost, and how long are the sessions?
The duration and cost depend on your child's individual needs and therapy intensity. After completing a Functional Behavior Assessment (FBA), our clinicians recommend an individualized treatment plan along with transparent pricing.
8. What makes Pragyan's ABA program different from other centers?
We focus on Positive Behavior Support (PBS), Natural Environment Training (NET), play-based learning, functional communication, and emotional regulation. Our goal is to make therapy engaging, motivating, and child-centered while achieving measurable outcomes.
9. How do you manage meltdowns and sensory overload?
Our clinicians first identify the reason behind the behavior through a Functional Behavior Assessment (FBA). Based on the findings, we teach appropriate communication strategies and collaborate with Occupational Therapists when sensory processing support is required.
10. How long does the assessment process take before therapy begins?
The initial assessment, developmental history, clinical observation, and Functional Behavior Assessment are generally completed within 3–5 business days. Therapy can usually begin soon after the Individualized Education Plan (IEP) is finalized.
11. Can ABA Therapy improve my child's social skills?
Yes. In addition to one-on-one therapy, we conduct structured social skills sessions where children practice sharing, taking turns, following group rules, understanding social cues, and interacting confidently with peers.
12. How can parents monitor their child's progress?
Parents receive regular progress updates through monthly IEP reviews, therapist feedback after sessions, and practical home strategies. We believe in transparent communication so families remain actively involved in every stage of their child's development.
