Overview
ABA Therapy for autism in Austin
Founded in 2012 by a parent who had gone through her own search for the right autism care, this Austin clinic builds ABA programs around daily data review rather than a fixed curriculum. Care spans assessment, hands-on ABA treatment, and training for both parents and staff, with a more intensive track available when behaviors have escalated to crisis level. The practice describes itself as family-oriented rather than corporate in feel.
Best for
A fit for Austin-area families who want a smaller, locally-run ABA practice rather than a large regional chain, covering toddlers through early school age.
Their approach
Treatment usually starts with close one-on-one support and gradually shifts toward small-group and everyday-setting practice as a child's skills build, mixing discrete trial teaching with routines carried out at the center, at home, and at school. Caregiver training is folded into every plan alongside the child's own goals.
What to expect
New families begin with a free consultation, roughly an hour long, that includes a walk-through of the center before signing on. Staff also work directly with families and their insurance carriers to sort out coverage.
