ABA Teaches Behavior. MeRT Prepares the Brain to Learn It.
Together, ABA and MeRT can help children with autism make greater progress, with less frustration. Learn how brain-based therapy supports behavioral success.
ABA is a go-to treatment for autism. Here’s why.
Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) is a structured, evidence-based method used to teach communication, social skills, and behavior management. It’s often recommended by schools, doctors, and therapists as a foundation for autism care.
Many children benefit from ABA by learning how to:
Communicate more clearly
Follow instructions and routines
Reduce disruptive behaviors
Build independence
But even with the right therapy plan, some kids don’t respond the way their parents hoped.
Some children struggle to stay focused during sessions. Others resist therapy altogether. And for many, the learning gains just don’t seem to stick.
This isn’t a failure. It’s often a sign that the brain needs more support before behavioral changes can take hold.
That’s where MeRT® comes in.
What is MeRT, and how can it help ABA work even better?
MeRT (Magnetic e-Resonance Therapy) is a neuroscience-based treatment that uses advanced brain mapping and magnetic stimulation to improve communication between areas of the brain.
Here’s what the process looks like:
We start with a non-invasive brain scan (EEG)
Your child’s unique brainwave activity is analyzed
We then create a customized treatment plan of TMS to gently stimulate underperforming areas of the brain
This helps support improvements in:
Focus and attention
Emotional regulation
Sensory processing
Language development
Sleep quality
Why does the combination of ABA and MeRT work so well?
ABA gives your child the tools to thrive.
MeRT helps their brain use those tools.
When combined, families often see:
More calm, focused ABA sessions
Faster skill acquisition
Less frustration for both the child and the therapist
A more confident, regulated child
Think of it as creating better brain readiness for learning.
Safe. Non-invasive. Based on neuroscience.
No medications
No sedation
FDA-cleared equipment
Fully customized to your child’s brain activity
Well-tolerated, even by sensitive children
