Telehealth became a necessary way to deliver mental health care to our clients during the  COVID-19 pandemic, however, research has shown that the continued utilization of telehealth services is in fact beneficial for the individual and their progress with ABA therapy.

​With Telehealth services, parents and caregivers are a part of all treatment sessions where they can learn ABA strategies that can further their child’s overall progress in obtaining behavioral goals. Studies have found that parents of children with autism and other disorders that use an online platform to meet with specialists and learn communication techniques and therapies like ABA can improve treatment at home and increase the family’s ability to communicate with their child with Autism spectrum Disorder or other disorders.
