Overview

ABA Therapy for autism in Arlington

Families in Arlington, Texas turn to Sierra Behavioral Therapy for ABA support that comes to them, whether that's the living room, the classroom, or a neighborhood playground. Founder Martha Sierra, who carries board certification as a behavior analyst, studied ABA at the graduate level with a focus on autism, and she set the practice up to treat clients from toddler age into adulthood across the Dallas-Fort Worth area. Rather than running a fixed curriculum, the small team leans on getting to know each child's household and routines first, then layers in parent coaching and caregiver support groups alongside the one-on-one sessions.

Best for

A good fit for DFW parents who want ABA sessions held at home, school, or out in the community, and who'd rather have someone else untangle the insurance or Medicaid paperwork.

Their approach

Treatment plans grow out of a child's own routines rather than a set program template, and parent coaching plus caregiver support groups run alongside the direct therapy. The office also does its own legwork on insurance, chasing down authorizations, renewals, and appeals so parents aren't stuck on hold with their carrier.

What to expect

New families start with a no-cost consultation, then move through an insurance check and an initial assessment before a treatment plan gets built. Self-pay sessions generally land between $60 and $120 an hour, but most insured families end up covering just a copay or deductible, and the office aims to turn around a benefits check within a day.
