Frequently asked questions at our Kingwood – Mills Branch, Texas, ABA therapy center
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 and play-based techniques to help children reduce target behaviors and learn new skills. ABA therapy at Action Behavior Centers' Mills Branch location in Kingwood, Texas, is tailored to the individual needs of the child.
Is that a good idea?
It’s understandable to want to trust that your child will catch up on their own, but waiting to seek an autism diagnosis in Kingwood’s Mills Branch area can mean missing important chances for early intervention. Getting an early autism diagnosis lets your child start therapies like ABA sooner, which can improve their communication and interactions with others. Starting ABA therapy at our Mills Branch autism center early, ideally between the ages of 18 months and 5, gives your child the best chance to grow and reach their goals.
Does my child need an autism diagnosis before starting ABA therapy?
Yes, a formal autism diagnosis is required before a child can begin ABA therapy at our Kingwood – Mills Branch, Texas, center. An autism diagnosis is necessary before a child can access early intervention services, qualify for insurance coverage, and receive autism support in school. Action Behavior Centers offers no-cost autism evaluations at our Mills Branch ABA therapy location, including the ADOS-2.
What is the age range of children you serve in Kingwood – Mills Branch?

Can someone help me understand my ABA insurance benefits?

- Verifying your benefits
- Explaining deductibles, copays, and coinsurance

How can ABA therapy help my child?
Every child’s journey is unique, and ABA therapy is personalized to meet your family’s priorities. At ABC, we focus on helping children diagnosed with autism build practical, everyday skills while supporting families along the way.
ABA therapy can help your child grow in:
- Communication: Using words, gestures, or devices to express needs and connect with others
- School readiness: Learning to imitate, follow routines, and build pre-academic skills
- Behavior support: Finding safe, effective ways to meet needs while reducing unsafe behaviors like aggression, self-injury, or elopement
- Social skills: Playing with peers, sharing, and taking turns
- Self-care: Practicing routines like brushing teeth, washing hands, and cleaning up toys
ABC’s clinical research shows strong outcomes: 86% of families report major reductions in challenging behaviors within the first year of therapy, along with continued progress as goals evolve.
Does ABA therapy work?
Yes! Decades of research show that ABA therapy is an effective, evidence-based treatment for children diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Studies demonstrate that children who receive intensive ABA (typically 20–40 hours per week over two or more years) make significant progress in communication, social interaction, and daily living skills. Many are able to participate in school and community activities alongside their peers.
While every child responds differently, ABA therapy remains one of the most studied and proven approaches for supporting growth and development.
Is ABA therapy effective for autism?
Yes! Every autistic child 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, including ABA therapy, can often participate in school and social activities at the same level as their peers.
