Empowering Growth Through Personalized ABA Therapy
Unleashing Potential, Transforming Lives: Oregon's Premier Autism Care Specialists
At Burton Behavioral Interventions Corp, we specialize in providing personalized Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy for children with autism. Our team of expert Board-Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs), Registered Behavior Technicians (RBT) and Registered Behavior Analyst Interventionist (RBAIs) offers comprehensive in-home, school, and telehealth therapy services in Albany, Oregon, and the surrounding areas.
To begin our therapy program, it is important to first consult with your child's pediatrician and your insurance provider to ensure coverage for autism-related services. Once those initial steps are taken, we can proceed with a consultation to develop a tailored plan that addresses your child's specific needs.
During the consultation, our BCBA, Sali Burton, will meet with you and your child to gain a deeper understanding of your unique circumstances. This collaborative process allows us to create a personalized program that focuses on building essential skills and unlocking your child's potential. Our goal is to lay a strong foundation of skills that will support your child's growth and development.
We are dedicated to providing high-quality ABA therapy that is customized to meet the individual needs of each child we serve. By working closely with you and your child, we aim to create a program that fosters meaningful progress and enhances your child's overall quality of life.

What is Aba Therapy?
Applied Behavior Analysis is a therapy approach to applying techniques based on the principles of learning to change the behavior of social significance. The goal of ABA therapy is to increase your child’s skills for independent living while decreasing challenging behaviors. At Burton Behavioral Interventions Corp, we use ABA therapy to work with your child to build long-term information processing and sensory, motor, cognitive, and social-emotional functions.
Therapy Roadmap
Guiding Your Journey to Success
Diagnosis
At Burton Behavioral Interventions Corp, we do not offer autism diagnosis services. Please consult your pediatrician and check with your insurance provider before scheduling assessments or appointments with our team. Our focus is on providing therapy and support following a formal diagnosis and appropriate referrals.
Initial Consultation with BBIC
The next step is to contact BBIC to initiate the process of determining if our services are the right fit for you and your needs.
Authorization/Pre-Authorization
We initiate the process of obtaining authorization or pre-authorization from the client's insurance company. This step ensures that the necessary coverage is in place for the services we provide.
Intake Process
Clients complete the necessary intake forms, which provide important information about the client's background, medical history, and goals.
Initial Observation and Interview
Our Board-Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) conducts an initial observation session directly with the client to assess their behaviors and skills. Simultaneously, the BCBA also conducts an initial interview with the parents or caregivers to gather valuable insights and information about the client.
Functional Behavior Assessment (FBA)
Based on the observation and interview findings, as well as the questionnaire filled out by the client/caregiver, our BCBA conducts a comprehensive Functional Behavior Assessment. This assessment helps identify the underlying causes and functions of the client's behaviors and skill levels, providing crucial insights for developing an effective therapy plan.
Initiation of 1:1 Therapy
After completing the FBA and receiving authorization from insurance, we begin the direct 1:1 therapy sessions and parent training. The 1:1 sessions involve the Registered Behavior Analysis Interventionist (RBAI) working directly with the client to implement the tailored therapy plan designed and supervised by the BCBA. The therapy focuses on addressing the specific goals and targets identified during the assessment process, ensuring a customized approach to maximize your child's progress and success.
Personalized Development Plan
Assessment results will be documented in a report and thoroughly analyzed to develop a personalized plan tailored to the client's specific needs and goals.
Tracking Progress
Regular assessment and reassessment of the client's progress will be conducted to ensure accurate tracking of their development.
Fading ABA Services
As your child progresses and gains new skills, the frequency of ABA services will gradually decrease. This fading process is a result of your active support and participation in your child's development. As your child becomes more independent and proficient in their abilities, the need for frequent sessions will diminish.
Discharge and Transition Plan
When the target behaviors and instructional goals have been consistently met for six consecutive months, behavior analysis services will end. Support will be gradually reduced based on specific sub-criteria, with the fading procedure subject to change if maladaptive behaviors increase or new ones emerge. If skill acquisition rates decline for four consecutive weeks, additional hours of support will be provided until the skills are regained.
By following these steps, we ensure a thorough and personalized approach to therapy, starting with a comprehensive understanding of the client's needs and goals and progressing toward effective and targeted interventions.

My son got the diagnosis on January 2022.
I struggled to find a ABA company in my area
Because I live in corvallis.
I wanted to find a therapist/BCBA who will genuinely care for my son, and teach my child with love.
And I belive many ASD parents always try to find people who are passionate working with their family.
I called all of ABA company in network with my insurance company.
And Finally, I found Sali. she is a BCBA and owned Burton behavioral intervention Corp.
She has lots experienced as a bcba, she is so kind and energetic. She worked with my so one on one providing therapy and as his bcba supervising his current RBT. She has helped me with many things that I needed to do for my child.(she attended IEP meeting with me, when with us Occupational therapy and Speech therapy and helped advoacate for my son at school. Organized play dates, going in the community etc.) Although my son received speech therapy and Occupational therapy before, I didn't see as big of progress or growth until we started ABA therapy with Sali.
Above all, she has a real heart and has taught my son so much.
If you are looking for high quality ABA services, I totally recommend Sali and her company to any parents with asd child.
