Overview
ABA Therapy for autism in Dallas
A multi-room ABA center tucked into the Casa Linda neighborhood of east Dallas, this location at 1152 North Buckner Blvd is part of the larger Action Behavior Centers network with coverage across the Dallas-Fort Worth area. Clinics are purpose-designed with separate spaces for group activities, fine motor work, and indoor movement — not a converted office. Both in-center and at-home service tracks are available, and ABC works with more than 120 insurance plans including Anthem BCBS, Optum, Ambetter, and Carelon.
Best for
Toddlers and early-school-age children with an autism diagnosis whose families want an insurance-credentialed provider with flexible center and home-based scheduling.
Their approach
BCBAs design each child's plan and supervise the Registered Behavior Technicians who run day-to-day sessions — a two-tier model standard to intensive ABA. Families receive structured BCBA-led guidance meetings twice a month so parents have concrete tools to carry skills into daily life at home.
What to expect
The clinic runs Monday through Friday, 8am–5pm, by appointment; ABC emphasizes same-season access rather than a long intake delay. For children 18 months to 6 years old who haven't yet received a diagnosis, the center can also connect families with evaluation support.
