Individualized ABA Assessment (WebABLLS / ABLLS-R)

Every ABA-VB therapy program at ARN begins with an individualized assessment to understand each child’s current strengths and learning needs.

This assessment helps our team develop meaningful goals across key areas such as:

  • 🗣️ Language and communication
  • 🤝 Social interaction and play
  • 💬 Self-help and daily living skills
  • 🎓 Learning readiness and academics
  • 🧩 Motor development

Based on the assessment results, an individualized ABA-VB program is designed with clear goals and measurable progress indicators.

Considering an initial skills assessment? ARN offers a separately booked, non-diagnostic Skills Assessment to explore your child’s current abilities. It is not a clinical autism or ADHD diagnosis. See the assessment process, fee (HK$2,800), and what parents receive.

How 1-to-1 ABA-VB Therapy Is Delivered at ARN

Our ABA-VB therapy combines structured teaching with natural learning opportunities to support meaningful skill development.

  • Functional Communication

    Children learn to use language in everyday situations, such as requesting help, making choices, and engaging with others.

  • Motivation-Based Teaching

    Teaching is linked to each child’s interests to maintain engagement and encourage active participation.

  • Natural Environment Practice

    Skills are practiced across different natural settings to help children apply what they learn beyond the therapy session.

  • Structured Support

    Teaching is carefully paced and adjusted to help children succeed while building confidence and independence.

Monitoring Progress & Parent Involvement

Parents receive regular information about their child’s learning goals and progress throughout the ABA-VB therapy programme:

  • Weekly progress reports help parents follow their child’s learning.

  • Parents receive a copy of their child’s Individualised Education Plan (IEP), developed over approximately the first month of therapy using observations from real teaching sessions.

  • Session scoring and observation notes are available to parents.

  • Monthly supervision by the course director, alongside ongoing review of progress and goals, helps guide adjustments to the programme.

Parents are active partners in this process, sharing observations from home to help the team understand how skills carry over into everyday routines.
