Evidence-Based Care

ABA Therapy in Burnaby

Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA) is a well-researched approach to supporting children with autism and behaviour challenges. In Burnaby, Krisie Cheng provides both in-home sessions — which allow therapy to take place in the child's real environment — and telehealth options for families who prefer more flexibility. Every programme is built around your child's specific profile, not a generic curriculum.
