Commitment to Families
At Dr. Cho Behavioral Therapy, we foster growth and create positive, life-changing moments that build upon our clients’ unique talents, gifts, and new hope. We seek to strengthen and support families by establishing a compassionate, evidence-based lifestyle conducive to long-term success for family members with autism. Providing the highest quality programs to our clients is our top priority. To achieve this, our behavior therapists receive weekly supervision from a BCBA or BCaBA supervisor and attend monthly meetings to stay current with the latest methods of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) interventions. We take great pride in our experienced clinical staff and provide exceptional incentives to encourage long-term retention. As a result, our staff turnover rate remains remarkably under 5%, ensuring true continuity of care from dedicated therapists who have built a strong rapport with each child. This consistency is vital, as children with autism often experience difficulties establishing relationships outside of their immediate family.
