Adventures with Autism provides evidence-based ABA therapy designed around your child's unique strengths, goals, and potential — delivered with warmth, precision, and heart.
CompassionateAdventures with Autism is a BCBA-led ABA therapy clinic in Salem, Oregon. We believe every child deserves individualized, dignified support — and that families deserve a team they can truly trust.
Our clinical team includes Board Certified Behavior Analysts, Licensed Behavior Analysts, and Registered Behavior Technicians who bring both rigor and heart to every session. We work collaboratively with families, schools, and community providers to ensure consistent, meaningful progress.
All interventions grounded in peer-reviewed ABA research and best practices.
Families are partners in every step of the therapeutic process.
We build on what your child can do, not just what they can't.
We partner with schools and providers for a consistent support network.
At Adventures with Autism, our clinical approach goes beyond behavior — we see the whole child, their history, their nervous system, and their strengths.
Led by two BCBAs with specialized trauma training
We recognize that many children in ABA have experienced adverse experiences that shape how they respond to the world. Our team is trained to identify trauma responses, avoid re-traumatizing practices, and create environments where children feel genuinely safe — not just compliant.
Grounded in respect for neurological difference
We don't treat autism as something to be fixed. Our goal is never forced conformity — it's building skills that expand your child's independence, communication, and quality of life on their own terms. We celebrate difference while supporting growth.
Real partnership, not just programming
You'll work with clinicians who ask why — not just what. We involve families in every step, explain our reasoning, and adjust when something isn't working. Your child's dignity and autonomy are non-negotiable in everything we do.
