1:1 ABA therapy ensures that your child gets the individualized care necessary for the most successful outcomes.
Parent Training Program in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA)
At Steiner Ranch Behavior Therapy, we understand that parents are the most important part of a child’s success. Our ABA-based Parent Training Program is designed to empower caregivers with evidence-based tools and strategies to confidently manage challenging behaviors, teach essential skills, and foster meaningful change at home and beyond.
Led by Dr. Haak, PhD, BCBA-D, LBA, our program provides hands-on coaching, individualized support, and practical techniques grounded in the science of behavior. Whether your child is diagnosed with autism, ADHD, or struggles with emotional regulation, we tailor each session to meet the unique needs of your family.
Our parent training is offered as a structured package of 20 sessions — including an initial assessment, a written report, strategy development, and guided training sessions — providing families with consistent, actionable support over time.
What We Teach:
Understanding why behaviors occur (the “function”)
Preventing meltdowns with proactive strategies
Preventing meltdowns with proactive strategies
Teaching communication and coping skills
Using reinforcement effectively without bribery

Our program is collaborative, flexible, and centered around your goals as a parent. Sessions are available in person or virtually, and can be integrated with your child’s ongoing therapy or offered as a standalone, parent-focused service.
Individual 1:1 ABA Therapy
Our 1:1 ABA therapy programs are individualized to meet your child’s specific needs.
We use formal and informal assessments as well as work closely with you to create a program that will enable your child to increase desired skills and decrease challenging behavior. The strategies we use are evidence-based and are most likely to be effective in achieving the desired outcomes.
School Shadowing (in private settings)
We have highly trained technicians that will accompany your child at school, providing support throughout the day or at specified times of the day.

Potty Training
Potty training is a skill that can take longer for children with special needs to master. We will work with you to create an individualized plan to help your child learn this skill.
Supervision of Technicians
We provide supervision of technicians working with your child in accordance with the recommendations made by the BACB. We ensure that technicians are trained to work with your child when they begin providing services, and we continue to supervise them on an ongoing basis.
We also provide supervision of hours for those technicians wishing to seek their BCBA certification.
