Yes, absolutely. The rates will be provided to you on the service agreement.

If you are doing this via private pay no insurance (self-pay) no. If you are using your insurance then yes, your insurance will most likely require a diagnosis to cover ABA services.

Yes, some private insurances such as CMS21/Sunshine/WellCare will cover ABA for those who have a diagnosis of ASD, Down Syndrome and ADHD. However, most insurance companies do require a diagnosis of ASD in order to cover ABA services. If your child does not have a diagnosis, you can still receive ABA services by entering a private pay (self-pay) agreement.

We offer services wherever the client needs them and as long as the school or facility allows therapists in.

We offer ABA services exclusively. However, our ABA therapists are also able to work on a lot of other things such as helping with communication and motor skills. Our sister company does provide psychological services, such as testing, Psychoed, individual therapy etc.

Yes, we do. ABA is for all ages and can be used for everyone.

It all depends, if you are doing private pay it should be within one week depending how quickly an appointment can be scheduled with the family to meet. If it’s through your insurance, then it would depend on how quickly the insurance company provides us with an authorization number to do the initial assessment. Typically, this can take anywhere between 1-2 weeks.

Every child is different. This is something that would be determined once the initial assessment is done, and analyst can determine what the child needs.

Parent News & Resources

While parenting is certainly the most rewarding job inthe world, it can also be the most exhausting - and that’s okay. Naturally, looking after little ones and keeping them safe, healthy, and engaged is tough onthe body and mind.

As much as we love keeping our kids protected in abubble, they need to be made independent (you aren’t going to be here forever, right?). Being independent will help kids make them confident and instill a sense of responsibility.
