Raising a child diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) means building a team. Applied behavior analysis (ABA) therapy may be at the center of your child's support, but many autistic children also benefit from speech therapy, occupational therapy, feeding therapy, or physical therapy alongside it.

If you've recently been told your child may be autistic, or if you've been navigating the diagnostic process for a while now, you've probably heard about applied behavior analysis (ABA) therapy. But do you need a referral before your child can begin ABA therapy?

Positive reinforcement is one of the most important applied behavior analysis (ABA) therapy strategies used to help children diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) build functional skills for everyday life. When reinforcement is thoughtful, individualized, and connected to what a child actually finds meaningful, real skills begin to stick!

When your autistic child walks into an ABC center, the space around them affects how they learn, how they engage, and how comfortable they feel during applied behavior analysis (ABA) therapy. That's why we launched the 2026 ABC Design Standard, a comprehensive set of center upgrades rolling out across our 400+ locations nationwide.

When your child is diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), one of the first things you might hear from your pediatrician is a recommendation for applied behavior analysis (ABA) therapy. Knowing what to ask can help you feel a lot more confident as you compare your options. 

When families start looking into applied behavior analysis (ABA) therapy after an autism diagnosis, one of the first questions they ask is: how often will my child go?

Social challenges are one of the most common concerns parents of autistic children share with us. The good news is that social skills can be taught through individualized applied behavior analysis (ABA) therapy.

At ABC, we provide evidence-based ABA therapy in-center for children ages 18 months to 8 years old, and our ABC Academy program serves school-age children ages 5 to 12. One of the most common questions parents ask is: Once my child begins, how long does ABA therapy last? The answer depends on your child’s unique needs and goals.

One of the first and most important steps in applied behavior analysis (ABA) therapy is helping your child build a positive connection with their therapist. This is called pairing. Before any new skills are taught, the therapist focuses on earning your child’s trust and showing them that therapy can be fun and rewarding. Pairing sets the stage for learning by turning the therapist, therapy setting, and even tasks into things your child enjoys.

If you’re exploring applied behavior analysis (ABA) therapy for your child, one of the first questions that often comes up is: “Will my insurance cover ABA therapy?” Understanding how insurance works with ABA therapy is a crucial part of planning and can help bring peace of mind.
