Home Based Therapy

Home-based therapy provides meaningful learning opportunities that enable children with ASD to master critical skills in their home or other familiar environments.

We provide one-on-one in-home ABA therapy sessions, ranging from 5 to 20 hours per week. Using an interdisciplinary team (IDT) approach, we develop a highly personalized treatment plan which includes the development of adaptive skills and strategies to decrease challenging behavior.
