At Action Behavior Centers in South Carolina, we provide evidence-based applied behavior analysis (ABA) therapy to help children diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) grow and learn new skills. Our South Carolina ABA team collaborates closely with families to ensure that each child’s therapy is individualized, effective, and meaningful.
ABC had been life changing for both us, and our child. They have been there every step of the way, from the initial testing/diagnosis, to daily check ins and updates at pick up. They helped us with insurance questions and issues, which are overwhelming all on their own. We’ve seen so many improvements in our little one. The therapists and everyone at the facility go above and beyond. I can’t recommend them enough!!
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!

To make accessing services easier, we maintain a list of approved speech, occupational, physical, and feeding therapy providers that we work with. These professionals can deliver sessions at our centers during the therapy day, so your child can receive multiple therapies in one familiar setting without extra transitions or travel.
