Chris Topham and Celeration ABA
Along with his wife, who is also a BCBA, Chris founded Celeration ABA in 2020. At first, they mostly focused on supporting families through the COVID-19 pandemic by providing telehealth ABA and academic support while their children weren’t in school. Within a few years of launch, they’ve grown to become a profitable ABA company. They are focused on delivering high-quality, personalized ABA to families in the San Francisco Bay Area.
He also shares how to use a celeration chart and walks through how to use it to measure a variety of skills. We also discuss celeration charts and fluency-based instruction, using precision-based teaching with a task analysis, why Chris uses a one-tier model at Celeration ABA, and advice for those new to the field of ABA and precision teaching.
