No, we don’t currently provide diagnostic evaluations for autism. If your child is showing signs of autism, we advise that you schedule an appointment with their pediatrician or a medical professional to receive a psychological evaluation. Find a list of providers near you HERE. Once your child receives a psychological evaluation with an autism diagnosis, visit our Intake Form to inquire about ABA therapy services at a clinic near you.
ABA therapy is widely known as an effective, evidence-based treatment for those diagnosed with autism. ABA therapy can foster the development of skills while reducing negative behaviors. Each child will work towards individualized goals and can target areas such as communication skills, social skills, daily living skills, etc.
Selecting an ABA provider that is built on a foundation of quality treatment is important and we recommend researching several organizations to determine the best fit for your child.
Our Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBA) will work with you and your family to develop a customized treatment plan to help your child acquire new skills and/or reduce challenging behaviors based on their individual needs. Throughout treatment, our BCBAs provide ongoing supervision and conduct data analysis to ensure your child’s success in achieving their goals.
Upon the start of services, your child will work 1:1 with a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) who has been trained by a BCBA to implement the client’s unique treatment plan. During therapy sessions, RBTs will teach your child through natural play opportunities and constructive teaching moments.
The time frame for starting services can vary depending on the clinic’s availability and insurance verification process. There are scenarios in which our specific ABA clinic locations may have a waitlist for starting services. If you are added to our waitlist, a member of our Intake team can still work with you on the insurance verification process while you wait and will continue to check-in with you periodically to ensure you are well informed on your child’s status.
The cost of ABA therapy can vary depending on the benefits included in your insurance plan. If you would like assistance with this, please complete our Intake Form, and a dedicated member of our Intake team can help to confirm your coverage and provide you with a Verification of Benefits (VOB) summary. After reviewing your benefits summary, you will be able to determine what options are available for your family.
We currently accept all major insurance providers and state Medicaid programs, with private pay options available as well. For more information on the Intake process, please visit our Insurance Page.
