The Place’s award-winning and accredited program provides individualized applied behavior analysis (ABA) services to children.
We Provide Center-Based Therapy
Our model is unique in that our ABA therapy is provided in a full-day (8am-4:30pm) and half-day school-like setting. Children engage in activities that mimic a traditional school day, such as circle time, music, arts and crafts, group snacks, and lunch—all designed to foster socialization.
We Specialize in Early Intervention
The Place is dedicated to promoting growth during those early years. Each child has a dedicated and qualified 1:1 therapist who will specialize in helping children meet critical milestones in communication, social, and behavioral domains.
Our ABA is Reinforcement-Focused
All our clinicians follow a strict code of ethics and are dedicated to your child’s happiness. Our approach to applied behavior analysis (ABA) is based in science and delivered with compassion by qualified therapists (RBTs) and Board-Certified Behavior Analysts.
