About ABA
What is ABA therapy?
Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) is a research-backed approach that uses personalized support to build meaningful skills, reduce challenging behaviors, and help children and families reach their goals.
Will I be involved in my child’s therapy?
Absolutely. We’ll teach you everything we’re doing so you can keep it going at home. This includes parent training sessions and resources. We believe ABA works better when parents and caregivers are part of it.
How is progress measured and communicated?
We use data-driven methods to track progress, with regular check-ins and reports. Plans are reviewed frequently and adjusted based on what’s working best for your child.
Getting Started
How do I actually get started with services?
Just call us. Or use our contact form if that’s easier. Our intake team will guide and explain the next steps. Insurance approvals? We handle that too.
How long does it take to begin services?
Timelines vary based on insurance approvals and service needs, but we work fast and keep you informed every step.
Services & Eligibility
Where do you provide services?
We serve families across New York State in the comfort of your home. We are also looking to expand to clinics, schools, and community settings.
What age groups do you work with?
Babies to 21-year-olds. Doesn’t matter if your kid is just starting to talk or learning to take the subway alone — we meet them where they are.
What types of assessments do you provide?
We do thorough evaluations to understand your child’s unique needs. This includes functional behavior assessments (FBA), skill-based assessments, and developmental reviews to build personalized treatment plans.
Do you offer support for school transitions or IEP meetings?
Yes, our team collaborates with schools and can attend IEP meetings. We’ll show up and speak up for your kid.
Insurance & Payment
Do you accept insurance?
Yes. We currently accept Medicaid, Aetna, Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield, and Emblem Health. We are actively working on approvals with other providers. We also offer private-pay options and will help with the authorizations and paperwork.
Do you offer support outside of ABA?
Yes. In addition to ABA therapy, we’re developing programs like Respite and Community Habilitation to provide broader support for families navigating autism-related challenges.
