Aluma Care Has Landed in the Hawkeye State

Corn, kindness, and kid-sized wins.
‍
Aluma Care now offers ABA therapy in Iowa, and we are glad to be here. Applied behavior analysis in Iowa is an evidence-based practice for children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). It teaches skills in small steps and uses positive reinforcement to celebrate each win.

So, what is ABA therapy in real life? Picture a child who asks for a turn on the swing with words instead of tears. That small moment is a big skill.
‍
How does ABA therapy work? A Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) studies what helps your child learn. Then a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT in Iowa) practices those skills with your child each week.
‍
Searching for autism therapy in Iowa can feel like a lot. Our BCBAs act as an autism specialist in Iowa for each family, so you are never guessing alone.

We already support families in Kansas, and we bring that know-how to your side of the Missouri River.

Assessments and Plans

We begin with a Functional Behavior Assessment (FBA). It shows what a behavior is trying to say. Next comes a Behavior Intervention Plan (BIP) with clear goals. Discrete Trial Training (DTT) and Verbal Behavior Therapy build language. The Antecedent-Behavior-Consequence (ABC) Model tracks what happens before and after a behavior.
