Overview

ABA Therapy for autism in Waxahachie

Located on N Highway 77 in Waxahachie, this clinic brings the Action Behavior Centers ABA network to Ellis County — one of the southernmost points in the Dallas-Fort Worth metro. Children from 18 months through age 8 receive center-based therapy, while the at-home program extends to age 13. For families uncertain about a diagnosis, the center also offers evaluation support for toddlers and young children up to 6. Multiple facility spaces — game areas, reading corners, craft stations, and indoor play zones — are designed to make sessions engaging rather than clinical.

Best for

Families in Waxahachie or the southern DFW corridor who want a structured, insurance-friendly ABA program where BCBAs directly oversee their child's therapy plan.

Their approach

BCBAs set individualized goals and supervise each child's program, while RBTs handle daily session delivery. A built-in Family Guidance component — two BCBA-led meetings per month — keeps parents actively involved and equipped to reinforce skills at home.

What to expect

The clinic runs Monday through Friday, 8am to 5pm, with appointments recommended. ABC works with more than 120 insurance carriers; among those listed are Allegiance, Carelon, Anthem BCBS, UMR, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Allied Benefit Systems, All Savers, Ambetter, and Aspirant.
