Overview
ABA Therapy for autism in Carrollton
A BCBA-owned ABA practice in Carrollton, xyzABA works with children and adolescents on the autism spectrum across both a clinic setting and DFW families' homes. Sessions are supervised by a team of six BCBAs and draw on a mix of structured table work and naturalistic teaching tailored to each child's assessed needs. Five major commercial insurance plans are accepted, including Aetna, United Healthcare, Cigna, BCBS, and Baylor Scott & White. Families whose carriers are out of network can also pursue services through a private pay agreement.
Best for
Families of autistic children and adolescents in the DFW area looking for BCBA-led ABA with active parent coaching, flexible home or clinic delivery, and a tight-knit clinical team.
Their approach
Each child's program — either comprehensive (26–40 hrs/week) or focused (10–25 hrs/week) — is built from their own assessment results and targets communication, adaptive living, play, social, and school-readiness skills. Therapists blend Discrete Trial Training with Natural Environment Teaching so skills learned in session carry over into daily routines at home and school.
What to expect
Most families can expect to start within 2–6 weeks of first contact, once insurance authorization and staffing are confirmed. RBTs deliver 1:1 sessions Monday–Friday, with BCBA supervision at roughly 10–20% of therapy hours; regular parent meetings with the assigned BCBA cover progress data and hands-on training, all documented through the Rethink EHR platform.
