Do you accept insurance?

We work with a range of insurance providers. Contact us with your insurance information and we'll help verify your benefits and coverage for ABA services.

Where do sessions take place?

We provide individual services in the home, at school and in the community, and group ABA therapy at our clinic at 825 Eden Road in Lancaster. Together we choose the setting that best supports your child's goals and your family's needs.

How do I get started?

Reach out through our contact form or by email. We'll schedule an initial consultation and walk you through the intake process step by step.
