See all FAQs

Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) is an evidence-based approach that uses learning principles to help children build meaningful skills — like communication, play, daily living, and social interaction — in ways that respect the child.

Goals are chosen together with your family. Your BCBA works with you to understand what matters most in daily life and builds a plan around those priorities.

Most sessions happen in your home or in community settings your family visits. When appropriate, we may also coordinate with your child's daycare provider.

Caregivers are true partners. Regular caregiver training is part of every program so strategies work in real everyday routines.

We accept Maryland Medicaid and CareFirst. Please reach out so our team can verify your specific plan and review current availability.

Timelines vary based on coverage confirmation and assessment scheduling. Our team keeps you informed at every step.
