Personalized Coaching with Registered Behaviour Analyst

Build confidence and feel empowered with 1:1 RBA Coaching – Personalized Support for Success!

Are you looking for individualized coaching with a Registered Behaviour Analyst (RBA) to better support your child, youth or to build skills? Creative Therapy Associates is here to help!

Our 1:1 ABA Coaching Services provide personalized, ongoing support for parents, youth, and adults to achieve meaningful goals that enhance their quality of life. We take a consultative approach, ensuring coaching is tailored to individual strengths and needs.

  • What to Expect from Our Coaching Services

    During coaching sessions, a Registered Behaviour Analyst (RBA) will meet with families and/or youth as appropriate, either virtually, in-person at our center, or in-home/community settings. Together, we will:


    • Identify goals based on your child’s or youth’s unique needs.

    • Conduct assessments to guide individualized strategies.

    • Provide resources to support progress toward identified goals.

    Our RBAs use Behaviour Skills Training (BST), an evidence-based approach that involves:


    • Explaining individualized strategies.
    • Modeling techniques.
    • Coaching families or youth through guided practice.
    • Providing specific feedback to promote success.

    What Goals Can We Support?

    • ABA-Based Strategies for Everyday Skills
    • Communication skills (e.g., requesting help, understanding non-verbal cues).
    • Social skills (e.g., maintaining conversations, building friendships).
    • Executive functioning skills (e.g., organization, problem-solving, flexible thinking).
    • Emotional regulation (e.g., coping strategies, managing frustration).
