Families love working with Action Behavior Center

Our son has made outstanding progress during the last year, he is finally coming out of his shell and engaging in open play with other children. Thank you so much ABC for helping us!

Chris Sanchez

The ABA therapy provided here has been a game changer for my son, who in his own words said "I've learned how to make friends and finally enjoy school." The staff are delightful and knowledgeable, and patiently worked with us as we navigated our own journey through the world of ABA. The staff at ABC gave our family the tools we needed to improve our son's life and ours. It's definitely a team effort and parents need to be willing to put in the investment of learning too, but it's absolutely worth it. We even miss coming here as we had such positive interactions with the staff! Thank you, ABC!

Need a diagnosis?

We can help children of all ages!

If a screening tool or your child’s doctor suggests autism, the next step is to schedule an initial diagnostic evaluation (IDE) with a licensed psychologist. This evaluation typically involves a developmental interview, parent-report questionnaires, and direct observation of your child’s behaviors.

Frequently asked questions

View all FAQs

How will ABA therapy help my child?

ABA therapy uses positive reinforcement and play-based activities to help children reach milestones and change their behaviors. Our programming is tailored to each child’s needs and is designed to produce results you can feel good about.

What is ABA therapy, and how does it work?

Applied behavior analysis (ABA) therapy is an evidence-based treatment for autism that uses positive reinforcement to help children with autism reduce target behaviors and learn new skills.

ABA therapy, like that administered at Action Behavior Centers, is tailored to the individual needs of the child.

When is the best time for my child to begin ABA therapy?

Simply stated: the earlier, the better.

Clinical research has demonstrated that children who start ABA therapy as early as possible (~2 years old) make the most significant improvements. We serve children on the autism spectrum from 18 months to 14 years and offer personalized programming for their unique needs. Therapy program options may differ based on clinic. Please reach out directly to a clinic near you.

Does ABA therapy work for autism?

Yes! Every child with autism is unique, and some children experience more significant progress with ABA therapy than others. However, studies show that children who receive two or more years of intensive behavioral interventions, such as ABA therapy, can often participate in school and social activities at the same level as their peers.
