At Action Behavior Centers – Horsham, Pennsylvania, our ABA programs are tailored to each child, focusing on improving their communication, social skills, and daily living skills in a supportive and engaging environment.
Does my child need an autism diagnosis before starting ABA therapy in Horsham?
Yes, a formal autism diagnosis is required before starting ABA therapy in Horsham, Pennsylvania. A diagnosis is needed to access early intervention services, qualify for insurance coverage, and receive autism support through school systems.

Who can diagnose autism?
In the U.S., autism is diagnosed by qualified medical and mental health professionals through a comprehensive evaluation. This process may include direct observation, developmental history, caregiver interviews, and standardized diagnostic tools to determine whether a child meets criteria for autism spectrum disorder. Many children can be evaluated as early as 18 months old.
Professionals who may diagnose autism include:
- Developmental pediatricians
- Child psychologists or neuropsychologists
- Child psychiatrists
- Pediatric neurologists
Board Certified Behavior Analysts® (BCBAs®) may support the evaluation process, but a formal autism diagnosis is typically made by one of the specialists listed above.
What is ABA therapy and how does it work?
Applied behavior analysis therapy is a research-backed method that helps children diagnosed with autism learn new skills and reduce behaviors that may make learning harder. With ABA, children can improve communication, build daily living skills, and better understand their emotions. Our ABA therapists utilize different strategies, like Discrete Trial Teaching (DTT) and Natural Environment Teaching (NET), to support each child’s progress. Therapy is delivered through a compassionate care framework and emphasizes the child’s individual needs and goals.
I think my child is showing signs of autism. Should I wait to get my child evaluated?
Many parents hope their child will catch up naturally, and it’s normal to feel unsure about when to pursue an evaluation. However, waiting too long to seek an autism diagnosis can mean missing valuable opportunities for early support.
Early diagnosis allows children to begin therapies like ABA sooner, which can improve communication, social interaction, and everyday learning. Starting ABA therapy early, ideally between 18 months and 5 years old, can give children the strongest foundation for long-term development.
Will my child be sitting at a table all day during ABA therapy?
No way! At ABC, learning happens through a variety of engaging activities. While table time can be part of learning school readiness skills, children also enjoy:
- Circle Time with therapists and peers
- “Eats and Crafts” spaces for hands-on activities
- Group exercise, sensory rooms, and play-based learning
Therapy is designed to be fun, active, and motivating.
