How to start ABA therapy with us
Starting ABA can feel like a lot. It doesn't have to. Here's every step, so you know what's coming.

Step 1: Reach out
Call (508) 621-8964 Monday to Friday, 9 to 5, or fill out the short form below any time. The form asks only your child's age and insurance. When we call, we'll talk about where your child is with an autism diagnosis.

Step 2: We check your insurance
We contact your plan and find out what's covered. Then we call you back and explain it in plain words.

Step 3: Meet your BCBA
A Board Certified Behavior Analyst meets your child and talks with you. They watch, play, and ask what matters most to your family. Then they write a plan with clear goals, and go over it with you.

Step 4: Sessions begin
Your child starts with a therapist at home, at our Northborough center, or both. Your BCBA checks progress, coaches you, and updates the plan as your child grows.
How long does it take?
Insurance approval is usually the longest step. We'll keep you posted the whole way.
Have these ready
- Your child's insurance card
- Your child's autism diagnosis report
- Any recent school plans (IEP) or therapy notes, if you have them
Don't have everything? Start anyway. We'll help you fill the gaps.
Tell us about your child
It takes about a minute. We'll call you back, check your insurance, and answer your questions. The full intake paperwork comes later, once we've talked.

Common first questions
Do I need a referral from my doctor?
Some plans need one, some don't. We'll tell you after we check your insurance.
Can I call before I'm sure about ABA?
Yes. Plenty of parents call just to ask questions. No pressure.
What does the first assessment feel like for my child?
Mostly like play. Your BCBA watches how your child communicates, plays and handles changes, and talks with you about daily life.
