Frequently Asked Questions

It begins with a call to our intake specialist to complete paperwork and schedule your first appointment. A Board Certified Behavior Analyst will then meet with your child and guardian for an initial 1–2 hour session, typically within 45 days of completed paperwork.

From there, your BCBA creates a personalized treatment plan, reviews it with your family, and submits it to your insurance provider. At the same time, your treatment team is assembled. Once insurance approval is received, services can begin—usually within about four months from your initial call.

The goal of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) is to improve meaningful, everyday behaviors that enhance quality of life. It focuses on teaching new skills, encouraging positive behaviors, and reducing those that may interfere with daily functioning using individualized, evidence-based strategies.

Yes. We offer social skills groups for clients over age 5, providing opportunities to build and practice skills with peers.

Younger children in our Early STEPS program benefit from a blend of individual therapy, group play, and structured activities tailored to their development. Older clients may also practice skills in community settings, helping build confidence in real-world situations.

ABA therapy (Applied Behavior Analysis) is based on the science of learning and behavior, used to help individuals with autism learn new skills and reduce problematic behaviors by identifying and reinforcing positive behaviors while minimizing negative ones.

ABA therapy is guided by established ethical standards that prioritize each client’s dignity, individualized care, and collaboration with families. Professionals follow the Behavior Analyst Certification Board (BACB) Ethics Code to ensure services are respectful, appropriate, and effective.

Ethical ABA focuses on meeting each individual’s needs and goals, using positive reinforcement and evidence-based strategies to support growth and independence. Ongoing training, supervision, and evaluation help maintain high standards of care.

ABA therapy can help children with autism who are facing challenges with behavior, daily routines, or learning new skills. Because every child is different, we take the time to understand your child’s needs and determine if ABA is the right fit. Our team is here to guide you through the process—feel free to reach out anytime to learn more.

ABA therapy is provided by a team of trained professionals, each with a specific role. A BCBA (Board Certified Behavior Analyst) develops and oversees your child’s treatment plan, ensuring it is personalized and effective. RBTs (Registered Behavior Technicians) and BTs (Behavior Technicians) work directly with your child, carrying out the plan during daily sessions under the BCBA’s supervision.

The difference between an RBT and a BT comes down to certification. An RBT has completed formal credentialing requirements, while a BT is typically working toward that certification. Both are trained, supervised, and focused on helping your child make meaningful progress.

Every child’s needs are different, but school-aged children are typically recommended around 15 hours per week. Children in our Early STEPS program often receive closer to 30 hours per week. In most cases, the minimum recommended level of care is 10 hours per week.
Your BCBA will provide parent training to help you apply ABA strategies at home and in everyday situations. This guidance allows you to support your child’s progress and manage challenging behaviors consistently across different environments.
