Personalized Therapy: Cultivating Lifelong Skills for Everyone
At Valera Counseling Services, we empower clients of all ages and backgrounds to develop essential life skills, fostering growth, confidence, and resilience.
What is ABA and RB-BHT?
Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) is a key component of Research-Based Behavioral Health Treatment (RB-BHT), a proven approach that enhances skills and promotes positive behavior change.
Why Choose ABA and RB-BHT: RB-BHT, with ABA, breaks tasks into manageable steps using positive reinforcement, fostering growth and helping individuals manage behavioral and emotional challenges.
ABA at Valera Counseling Services: We offer ABA therapy within the RB-BHT framework, providing personalized, compassionate support in home, school, and facility settings to meet each child’s and family’s unique needs.

What is Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)?
Signs and Symptoms: ASD symptoms include difficulty with communication, repetitive behaviors, and challenges in social interactions. These signs can vary from mild to more severe.
Causes and Risk Factors: The exact cause of ASD remains unclear, but genetics and environmental factors may contribute. Valera Counseling Services stays updated with the latest research to provide the best care.
Diagnosis and Early Intervention: ASD is typically diagnosed through behavioral assessments before the age of 3. Early intervention, such as RB-BHT therapy and the ABA therapy approach can significantly improve outcomes by helping individuals develop essential skills.
What is Outpatient Therapy?
Outpatient therapy is a flexible form of mental health treatment that allows individuals to receive care while continuing to live at home and manage daily responsibilities.
It’s ideal for those with mild to moderate symptoms or as a step down from more intensive treatment. Clients typically attend regular sessions—such as individual, group, or family therapy—tailored to their needs.
Therapists help address emotional challenges, build coping skills, and support long-term well-being through personalized care.
