Steps in the ABA Therapy Process

Initial Contact

Reach out to us via phone or email to express your interest in our services. This first step is crucial for setting up an initial evaluation and allows us to understand how we can best serve your family’s needs.

STEP 2

Benefits Check

Understanding the financial aspects of therapy is important. We will liaise with your insurance provider to verify coverage for ABA therapy, ensuring you have all the necessary information. This stage may require a prescription for ABA services from your pediatrician and a recent psychological evaluation of your child.

Evaluation

A Board-Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) will conduct an in-depth evaluation in the comfort of your home. This process involves discussing your concerns, developing initial goals and objectives, and interacting with your child to assess the potential benefits of ABA therapy.

STEP 4

Authorization

Following the evaluation, we will submit our findings to your insurance provider. Once processed, we will receive an authorization detailing the number of hours approved for ABA therapy, marking a significant step forward in starting the therapy sessions.

STEP 5
Ready to Go

Ready to Go!

With authorization in hand, we will schedule a meeting to discuss the details of the therapy plan and arrange the schedule for upcoming sessions. This is where the journey of transformation and growth truly begins.

Commitment to Success

Time Commitment

ABA therapy is a commitment to your child's development. Based on extensive research and best practices, we recommend a minimum of 20 hours per week of direct ABA therapy to achieve significant improvements. This dedication is crucial for fostering lasting change.

Financial Commitment

Navigating the financial aspects of ABA therapy can be complex. Like other medical services, meeting deductibles may be necessary before insurance coverage takes effect. Our team is here to assist with insurance verification and to provide you with the most current and relevant information regarding your benefits.
