Question 1

What is Intensive Behavioral Health Services (IBHS)?

Accepted Answer

Intensive Behavioral Health Services (IBHS) is a specific framework of mental health support designed for children, youth, and young adults (typically up to age 21) who have significant emotional or behavioral challenges. IBHS is highly individualized. It isn't a "one-size-fits-all" program; it’s a clinical intervention tailored to the specific person's needs.

Question 2

What is a written order?

Accepted Answer

A Written Order is a professional prescription for help. Just like a doctor writes a note to a pharmacist to give you medicine for a cough, a Written Order is a note from a doctor or therapist to an insurance company for a clinic to give your child behavioral help. It is a formal document that proves a child needs extra support to learn new skills or handle big emotions.

Question 6

Is my child "just playing" or are they actually learning?

Accepted Answer

While it looks like fun and games, every activity is a "learning opportunity." We use Natural Environment Teaching (NET) to embed clinical goals into activities your child already loves. Whether they are building with blocks or playing hide-n-seek, our BCBAs and RBTs are actively prompting communication, turn-taking, and problem-solving.

Question 7

What is the difference between play-based ABA and a typical daycare?

Accepted Answer

The difference lies in the intentionality. In a daycare, play is often unstructured. In our program, every interaction is guided by a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) and an individualized treatment plan. We use specific reinforcement schedules and data-driven adjustments to ensure your child is meeting the milestones outlined in their assessments (like the VB-MAPP for example).

Question 8

How does play help with School Readiness?

Accepted Answer

Success in Kindergarten requires more than just knowing ABCs; it requires other soft skills such as following group instructions and playing reciprocally with peers. By practicing these in a play-based clinic setting, children build the social stamina needed to thrive in a larger classroom environment.

Question 9

Why do we use reinforcement during play?

Accepted Answer

Reinforcement is what makes a skill "stick." By using a child’s natural interests (like a favorite dinosaur or a specific song) as a reinforcer, we build high levels of motivation. This makes the learning process enjoyable rather than a chore, which leads to faster skill acquisition and fewer challenging behaviors.
