Getting started begins with a call to our intake specialist, who will walk you through the necessary paperwork and schedule an initial appointment with a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA). This first meeting, typically lasting one to two hours, is usually arranged within 45 days of completed paperwork and takes place with both the child and their guardian present.

Following the appointment, the BCBA develops a personalized treatment plan, reviews it with the family to ensure it feels like the right fit, and submits it to the insurance provider for approval. During this time, your child’s treatment team is being identified. Once insurance approval is confirmed, staffing is arranged and services can begin. From start to finish, the entire process typically takes around four months.

Absolutely. We offer social skills groups for children over the age of 5 who are receiving ABA therapy, with sessions available every night of the week. Children enrolled in our early intervention program, Early STEPS, participate in a blend of individual therapy, group play, and group activities tailored to their abilities.

For our older clients, we create opportunities to connect with peers out in the community — practicing age-appropriate skills in real-world environments that are engaging, fun, and meaningful.
