Why Lincolnwood Families Choose Caper ABA Therapy
Access & Convenience
Lincolnwood is part of the vibrant northern Chicago suburbs, and our program is structured to be accessible for local families.
We place high value on reducing travel burden for families: therapy options include in‑center services, as well as in‑home or community-based support, depending on need and logistics.
Highly Qualified Clinicians
Our team is made up of Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs) and Registered Behavior Technicians (RBTs) who are experienced, credentialed, and passionate.
We design each child’s program using evidence-based practices, tailored assessments, and data-driven decision-making to ensure thoughtful, targeted interventions.
Family-Driven Approach
We believe that parents and caregivers are essential partners in the therapy process. You know your child best, and we work with you to make sure goals align with your family’s priorities.
We provide ongoing parent training, coaching, and behavior support so that strategies learned during sessions can carry over into home, school, and community life.
Our Programs
Our ABA Services for Children in Lincolnwood
Initial Evaluation
We begin with a detailed assessment — observing your child, speaking with caregivers, and using standardized tools — to understand strengths, needs, preferences, and learning style.
Individualized Goal Planning
Based on this evaluation, our BCBA collaborates with you to set realistic, meaningful goals. These can cover communication, socialization, behavior regulation, self-help, play, and more.
Personalized Treatment Plan
Once we’ve defined goals, we create a tailored treatment plan, including recommended therapy frequency, session structure, and progress measures.
Structured Learning Environment
Our therapy space for Lincolnwood-area families is designed to support learning: it’s engaging, safe, and organized for effective behavior-analytic teaching.
One-on-One Instruction
Many sessions are delivered individually, giving your child focused attention and the ability to move at their own pace.
Group Activities
When appropriate, we run small-group sessions to promote social interaction, peer play, cooperation, and turn-taking.
Natural Environment Teaching
In-home therapy allows us to work on skills in the context of your child’s daily routine — mealtime, playtime, self-care, or family interactions.
Community Sessions
We can also support skills generalization by working in community settings (parks, stores, or other places relevant to your family), helping your child apply what they learn in therapy to real-life situations.
Ongoing Parent Education
Our BCBAs train parents and caregivers on effective behavior strategies, reinforcement techniques, prompting approaches, and other behavior-analytic tools.
Family Behavior Support
We create behavior support plans you can use at home. This empowers families to respond consistently and effectively to challenging behaviors, promoting long-term success.
Progress Meetings
We regularly review data and goals with you, refining strategies and ensuring the therapy remains aligned with your child’s growth and your family’s needs.
What Sets Us Apart
Why Caper ABA Therapy Is a Great Fit for Lincolnwood Families
Community Commitment
We are dedicated to serving Lincolnwood families, understanding what it means to raise a child with behavioral challenges in this community, and building strong relationships based on trust and collaboration.
Evidence-Based Excellence
Our entire service model is rooted in research-backed, data-driven, behavior-analytic practices overseen by BCBAs. We don’t take a “one-size-fits-all” approach — every plan is customized.
Holistic, Real-World Focus
We aim for practical, sustainable change. Our goal is not just to teach behaviors in the clinic, but to help your child succeed in daily life — at home, in school, and in community settings.
Family Partnership
We view caregivers as essential partners. Your insight, input, and involvement guide our therapy — and we equip you with meaningful tools to reinforce learning beyond our sessions.
Long-Term Perspective
We’re focused on lasting growth. Through goal review, data analysis, fading, and transition planning, we help each child build a foundation not just for today, but for future independence and success.
Who We Help
Impact & Outcomes for Lincolnwood Children
With consistent, high-quality ABA therapy through Caper ABA Therapy, children in Lincolnwood have the opportunity to make meaningful progress in:
- Communication: Developing functional language (verbal, gestural, or augmentative), initiating interaction, and improving expressive and receptive skills.
- Social Skills: Learning to interact with peers, share, take turns, play cooperatively, and engage in social routines.
- Behavior Regulation: Reducing challenging behaviors by identifying their functions and teaching safer, more adaptive replacement behaviors.
- Self‑Help & Daily Living: Gaining independence in routines like feeding, dressing, toileting, and self-care.
- Play & Cognitive Skills: Enhancing playfulness, flexibility, problem-solving, and cognitive engagement.
- Generalization: Applying learned behaviors in everyday environments beyond therapy — at home, school, or out in the community.
These outcomes help children grow not just academically, but socially and emotionally — improving their quality of life and helping families thrive.
