At Analytical Behavioral Consultants (ABC) we are passionate about serving children, families and professionals in the implementation of research-proven support systems for children who struggle with learning, language and behavior. In turn, our mission is to provide the highest quality behavior analytic services, based on the most current research in both Verbal Behavior (VB) and Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), to learners with Developmental Disabilities throughout the San Francisco Bay Area. We accomplish this by working to accelerate learning and develop a child's ability to learn both independently and in new ways. We develop positive teaching environments that allow the learner to develop communication and other skills under typically occurring contingencies, in both the community and family settings. All instruction is individualized and goals are formulated by determining a child's existing skill sets using both criterion and norm referenced assessment tools (i.e., VB-MAPP, PIRK,A-BILLS, and Vineland). We also maximize success by using cutting edge evidence-based tactics pertaining to direct instruction, the monitoring of progress and training of family members and educators.
