What Is ABA, And Is It Right for My Child?

Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) is a research-based therapy that helps children with autism build meaningful life skills.

ABA uses positive reinforcement to teach new skills and encourage meaningful behaviors. Therapists break larger skills into manageable steps and practice them consistently in real-life settings.

Each child receives a customized treatment plan developed by a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA), with progress tracked through data and ongoing assessments.

ABA uses structured support to focus on teaching:

Communication Social Interaction Independence

Your child may qualify if they:

  • Have an autism evaluation (if not, we can help)
  • Have an ASD diagnosis
  • Show delays in communication or social skills
  • Struggle with behavior regulation or daily living skills
  • Have been recommended for ABA by a pediatrician or specialist

ABA therapy is commonly recommended for children ages 1-21, and early intervention often leads to the strongest long-term outcomes.

If you're unsure whether your child qualifies, our team can help guide you through the evaluation and insurance process.

How It Works

1

Diagnosis

If your child has not yet received an autism diagnosis, we can refer you to a trusted provider. If a diagnosis is already in place, we move directly to intake.

2

Intake

You'll complete our secure online intake form and upload your insurance information and diagnostic documentation. At this stage, we also run a comprehensive benefits check to verify coverage and clarify what services are available under your plan. You may be eligible for government assistance.

3

ABA Assessment

Once authorization is in place, a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) conducts a formal assessment to identify your child's strengths, needs, and recommended areas of focus, and develop a treatment plan based on the assessment.
