The Philosophy of EC3
At Edify, our EC3 Model is built to help kids and young adults grow and thrive through ABA therapy. We blend proven, science-based techniques with heartfelt care that focuses on who your child or teen truly is, celebrating their unique strengths and needs.
When your child or teen acts a certain way, maybe a young child has a meltdown or a teen starts shuting down, they’re trying to navigate a challenge with the skills they have. They’re making choices that make sense to them in that moment, like seeking attention or avoiding something tough. While those choices might work right then, they can sometimes lead to bigger problems later. We understand these behaviors as their way of solving a problem, and we’re here to guide them toward better solutions.
With EC3, we take the time to truly understand your child or teen—what drives them, what challenges they face, and what they’re capable of. By seeing the world through their eyes, our therapists create a supportive, honest environment where they feel valued and understood. We help them build practical skills to tackle life’s challenges, from small daily hurdles to bigger obstacles, with confidence and resilience. Our approach is rooted in genuine care, empowering your child or teen to grow into their best self while staying true to who they are.
