About Us
Adamant Behavioral Services, Inc. ("Adamant") specializes in improving the lives of children diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) and other related developmental disabilities using Applied Behavior Analysis treatment.
Adamant is a clinic-based ABA provider in La Crescenta, CA. It is led under a PhD level behavior analyst with over 13 years of experience working with children and adults with developmental disabilities. Our doctor is a behavior analyst who is determined in helping every child receiving treatment at Adamant by providing continuous training to all staff, so they are equipped at being the best practitioners for the child. Furthermore, we have installed a sensory gym within the clinic, manufactured by the Fun Factory Sensory Gym, to take it a step further in meeting our clients' needs.
Using empirically validated Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) treatment, our highly skilled teams work to increase a variety of skills, including but not limited to communication, adaptive skills, socialization, play skills, toilet training, community integration, vocational skills, academic skills, group interaction and classroom skills, while decreasing the occurrences of challenging behaviors.
We employ highly skilled, qualified, and caring individuals to implement each client's treatment programs. We require accurate and on-going assessments to create individualized treatment plans. Further, we are persistent on improving the clients' lives through ongoing progress within all of the programs and provide consistent parent/staff training to ensure generalization and maintenance of a variety of skills.
All of our staff are Registered Behavior Technicians (RBTs) who are continuously overseen by on site supervisors. Monthly/bimonthly team meetings keep everyone focused on the child's progress and ensure that everyone is working towards a mutual goal: to help your child master skills and overcome most challenges and difficulties they are facing, so they can graduate our program and succeed everywhere they go.
Together, with our commitment, we are adamant on ensuring that each client will see progress towards a better and functional future.
Lastly, Adamant Behavioral Services, Inc. works towards promoting an inclusionary approach and providing a compassionate culture within our organization. We value our staff, clients, and their families – regardless of their age, gender identity, race, culture, ethnicity, national origin, religion, sexual orientation, disability, language, or socioeconomic status and we choose to celebrate these individual differences and diversities among one another. We take pride in recognizing our role as a teaching institution and we aim to contribute to the development of a modernized culture through training and research in inclusion, diversity, multiculturalism, racial and social justice, and more. In accordance with the Behavior Analyst Certification Board’s (BACB) Professional and Ethical Compliance Code, Adamant Behavioral Services, Inc. incorporates teaching cultural humility from the onset of training and embeds cultural sensitivity and awareness within our practices.
