ABA Therapy in Bethesda, Maryland

Bethesda families juggle demanding careers, tight school schedules, and the same everyday challenges any parent of a child with autism knows well. ABA Prep provides quiet, professional ABA therapy at home that respects your family's time and your child's dignity.

A calm, respectful ABA program at home

Sessions are one to one and built around play. Your child's Board Certified Behavior Analyst writes a plan focused on communication, independence, and social skills, then a trained Registered Behavior Technician delivers the daily work, with weekly BCBA supervision and monthly progress reviews for parents.

ABA therapy at home in Bethesda

For most Bethesda families, ABA at home is the right starting point: familiar space, familiar toys, minimal disruption. Skills built at home naturally spread to the places the family already goes: Bethesda Row, the Capital Crescent Trail, or a favorite table at the farmers' market.

MCPS Bethesda schools we coordinate with

Bethesda children attend MCPS schools including Bradley Hills, Bethesda Elementary, Wood Acres, Burning Tree, and Somerset; middle schools like Pyle and Westland; and Walt Whitman and Bethesda-Chevy Chase high schools. With your consent, our BCBAs share strategies with school teams, attend IEP meetings, and help make home programs and IEP goals reinforce one another.

Bethesda families often benefit from adaptive programs at Cabin John Regional Park, Imagination Stage's inclusive theatre programs, performances suited to sensory needs at Strathmore, and Jewish Federation of Greater Washington disability services in the surrounding area.
