OUR PROGRAMS
At Pinpoint+ Skills Lab, we recognize that families invest a significant amount of resources in finding the most appropriate support for their child. For this reason, we aim to meet their efforts with the highest quality of clinical care.
Consultation
We aim to empower families with knowledge and improve early identification of autism spectrum disorder. Early identification and access to necessary services and supports can significantly impact a child’s quality of life. Although we do not provide diagnostic services, we can assist with monitoring developmental milestones, help parents understand behavior, and provide strategies for teaching important life skills.

Functional Behavior Assessment
A Functional Behavior Assessment (FBA) is a comprehensive and individualized evaluation to identify the purpose, or function, of an individual's challenging behavior. A behavior intervention plan is then developed based on the collected data to better support the child. This plan will address variables that may be maintaining the behavior, and provide appropriate replacement behavior(s) that serve the same function as the challenging behavior.

ABA Therapy
Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) Therapy is the current gold standard for treating individuals with autism spectrum disorder. It is the application of the principles of learning to support skill development and/or reduce challenging behaviors. Treatment can be provided in a comprehensive (30-40 hours per week of 1:1 treatment) or focused (10-25 hours per week) approach, depending on the individual's needs.
