PREVALENCE OF AUTISM IN HONG KONG

Certain countries are seeing an increasing prevalence of the individuals with autism, also known as autism spectrum disorder (ASD), causing impairments in social communication, intelligence, sensory processing, and language in children.

Autism in Hong Kong is more common than one may think. About 1 in 27 people have autism spectrum disorder in Hong Kong. What is more important to note is the disorder affects boys much more than girls, the reason behind which has intrigued researchers around the globe. Prolonged exposure of infants and young children to lead, mercury, arsenic, and other industrial toxins in the environment, as well as their diets, has been linked to the rising prevalence of autism in Hong Kong and Mainland China.

 

The good news is that children with ASD in Hong Kong can get the treatment they require in order to function to their greatest potential throughout their lives. At Autism Recovery Network, we have created a holistic autism treatment in Hong Kong with the help of expert psychologists and behavioral therapists. One of the most effective treatments for autism spectrum disorder in Hong Kong now is Applied Behavior Analysis – Verbal Behavior.

Applied Behavior Analysis – Verbal Behavior (ABA-VB), focuses on teaching the different functions of language, and is proven to be a highly effective approach in autism treatment in Hong Kong, and even worldwide. 

Our holistic ABA-VB therapy reinforces communication skills, motivates children with autism to learn, and use language by maintaining desirable social behaviours, develop play skills and learn to become flexible to changes. Our autism Hong Kong therapists also use ABA-VB strategies to reduce unwanted behaviors and to increase desirable ones by using different forms of reinforcements like praise and preferred items and activities of the child with autism.

PREPARING CHILDREN WITH AUTISM SPECTRUM DISORDER IN HONG KONG

Children with autism often have a high degree of sensitivity, which can cause anxiety and stress in response to certain stimuli in their environment. The underlying stress can be heavy for them to deal with, which can trigger challenging behaviors associated with autism, like impulsivity and engaging to tantrums which can be difficult to control, leading to dysfunctionalities in crucial areas of life in the future if the necessary support is not offered in the initial stage.

Our ABA-VB therapy at Autism Recovery Network is designed to help children with ASD in Hong Kong to build strong functional skills, such as communication and social skills, play skills, self-regulation, and many more. Our ASD Hong Kong therapists seek to make daily life easier for children with autism and their families by helping them work on their social interactions, regulate their emotions, communicate their needs and wants, and inculcate positive behaviors.

We are here to help you treat and manage your child’s developmental delays together with you.

Helping you learn the methods to handle and reduce your child’s outbursts and meltdowns.

Learning About Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)

What Is Autism?

Autism Spectrum Disorder is a pervasive developmental disorder developed during early childhood. It can be identified by a triad of difficulties in communication, social interaction, and rigid behavior, interests and activities. Autism can affect kids even if they are really smart, and even if they have an outgoing personality. Autistic children may also have other special needs such as ADHD and dyslexia that must also be addressed.

Depending on the severity of their symptoms, a child with autism may be described as ‘high’ or ‘low’ functioning. The low functioning children may throw temper tantrums or behave in a socially inappropriate manner. High functioning children can manage their own behavior, however, they may find themselves unable to make friends or being the target of school bullies. As adults, they may have difficulties holding on to their jobs due to their weak social skills.

Autism is not caused by a shy personality, poor parenting or childhood trauma. It is a handicap that almost researchers agree has a genetic cause. Children with autism encounter various difficulties in their daily life because they could not do the “simple” things that we take for granted, and not because they are shy or attention seeking. One simple test to see if the child has autism is to see if he or she spontaneously points at objects to share experiences, for instance, showing a beautiful butterfly to parents. Children with autism are very unlikely to do so, and they will only point at objects to make requests (e.g. asking for food). Children who do share their experiences are unlikely to have autism.

Treating for Autism

Preparing Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder in Hong Kong

Since our foundation in 2005, Autism Recovery Network is the only certified ABA-VB therapy provider and the most awarded center in Asia. Many children with autism in Hong Kong often need additional learning support and resources aside from what they get from school. Our autism Hong Kong centre is here to prepare your children for mainstream schooling and pave the way for their future.

Other than our ABA-VB therapy for children, we also provide professional advice and training for parents and teachers to teach children with autism effectively. Children in our center that have ASD in Hong Kong have a very significant rate of recovery and mainstreaming. Most of the children in our ASD Hong Kong programs can speak within one year, and have obtained adequate social and academic skills for mainstream schooling.

When it comes to autism treatment in Hong Kong, our Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) combined with Verbal Behavior (VB) stands out from traditional methods to address the needs of your child with autism spectrum disorder in Hong Kong. Our ABA-VB specialists understand the motivating factors that affect the child with autism’s learning and behavior, this our teaching is focused on maintaining their motivation while learning, working on the child’s strength and to teach the child as many skills as we can. Our goal is for the child with autism to use the language that he/she learns across different settings, people and situations. Our approach to autism treatment in Hong Kong fills the gaps from a traditional ABA approach by making the learning process more dynamic and flexible for children with autism spectrum disorder in Hong Kong.

A HOLISTIC APPROACH TO AUTISM TREATMENT IN HONG KONG

The focus of our autism treatment in Hong Kong is to help your child open up to the world around them. Children with autism face a tough time talking to other people — something that our therapists understand greatly. We follow the principles of ABA to help your child with autism communicate and interact with their environment without getting overwhelmed. We strive to incorporate components in our autism Hong Kong therapy that set it apart from traditional approaches.

In our therapy at Autism Recovery Network, we maintain an interactive environment where children with autism can learn and enjoy. The VB component of the ASD Hong Kong therapy aims to demonstrate to your child the value of using words in their daily communication. The approach proves sensible when it’s observed that the initial language of children serves their need to get something from someone.

Our assessment process for ABA-VB therapy for autism treatment in Hong Kong involves the following steps:

Step 1

Observing and identifying behaviors that the child with autism is engaged in.

path to mainstream school (1)

Step 2

Testing and identifying existing skills to teach.

FAQ (1)

Step 3

Setting well-defined goals and learning outcomes.

Step 4

Determining a data measurement and recording method.

Step 5

Developing and following a treatment plan to help the child with autism acquire new skills.

Then gradually, we introduce crucial aspects of linguistics.

  • Non-verbal instructions through receptive repertoire.
  • Verbal responding to people’s speech through intraverbal communication.
  • Naming, labelling, and describing objects using tact.
  • Repetition of people’s speech and imitating observed behavior.
  • Reading and writing skills using textual and transcriptive tools.

 

One of the most striking aspects that set our therapy at Autism Recovery Network apart from traditional ABA is certainly our approach. The process we follow seeks to go beyond helping children with autism memorise definitions of words. Our therapy in treating autism spectrum disorder in Hong Kong is more result-driven, in the sense that we help children with autism truly understand and feel the meaning of words so that they can use them in their daily communication more effectively. With time, practice and patience, our ASD Hong Kong therapy can lead to the gradual waning of autistic symptoms, and help children become an active part of the mainstream educational system.

We are the most awarded Autism Recovery Centre in Asia.
