Overcoming Autism Through Hope (OATH), Inc. provides in-home Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) treatment for children with autism. The goal of our treatment is to decrease behavioral excesses demonstrated by children with autism (i.e., self-stimulatory behavior, self-injurious behavior, aggression, and tantrum behavior) while concurrently increasing learning skills, toy play, social interaction, and awareness.

Why ABA? We implement creative and flexible behavioral treatment using principles of ABA because its effectiveness has been documented in the results of empirical studies. The principles of this treatment include active reinforcement and identifying contingencies that maintain appropriate and inappropriate behavior. The goals and objectives are tailored to the child as he or she progresses throughout treatment. The long term goal for each child is to establish a rate and pattern of learning congruent with typical developing children and ultimately to mainstream the child into a normal school environment.

Why OATH, Inc.? OATH's mission is to provide high quality, individualized ABA treatment for children with autism. Our Program Director received his original training from a psychologist trained at UCLA by Ivar Lovaas, Ph.D. He currently has over nine years of experience in working with children with autism and their families as well as training and supervising therapists. In addition, OATH consults with Autism Partnership www.autismpartnership.com to assist us in providing the most effective and up to date ABA treatment for children with autism.

Autism Partnership is a leading U.S. and international provider of behavioral treatment for autism. Dr. Ron Leaf of Autism Partnership http://www.autismpartnership.com/ourdirectors.html has over 35 years of experience in working with children with autism, was extensively involved in many of the Young Autism Project research investigations at UCLA, and continues to provide consulting services nationally and internationally.
