The really wonderful thing about ABA is that it’s designed just for each person – it’s shaped around their unique personality, needs, and what they’re already good at. If you’re wondering if ABA might be a good fit, talking with experienced professionals to explore your individual situation is always the best first step.

We focus on understanding your child’s interests and empower them to manipulate their surroundings in order to acquire meaningful skills. Our therapists engage with your child, employing natural environmental learning to guide them in exploring and acquiring new knowledge. By employing positive reinforcement, AutismCOE instills in your child the ability to acquire and retain both new and existing skills.
What Age Group is Suitable for ABA Therapy?

Can I Attend Therapy Sessions with My Child?

We will work with you to create a comprehensive treatment plan that integrates both settings based on your child’s unique needs and goals.
Reviews from Parents
Autism Center of Excellence has been a life-changer for our family. Our son was diagnosed with autism at 6 years old and we were overwhelmed and scared. Autism COE helped us understand his needs and strengths and provided him with individualized and evidence-based ABA therapy. He has learned so many skills and gained so much confidence. We can’t thank them enough for their support and guidance.
Parent of K*, 6 years old.
"My son may still have a ways to go by society's standards, but he's definitely made leaps and bounds as far as his behavior and that was with the help of the wonderful BTs and BCBAs at Autism Center of Excellence. They are very knowledgeable of different ways to help redirect "bad" behavior to help get tasks done. They are a friendly bunch and my son looks forward to them coming every day!"
Mom to A*, 7 years old.
"The progress my child has made since starting ABA therapy at the Autism Center for Excellence is beyond what words can express. I am incredibly grateful and cannot thank them enough. Their evidence-based approach and individualized treatment plans have helped my child gain new skills, improve communication, and increase overall confidence. I highly recommend this center to any parent seeking support for their child with autism."
