Why Choose The Place for Children with Autism for ABA Therapy
We provide ABA therapy in a preschool-like setting, allowing us to work closely with each child through individualized, one-on-one therapy while building the foundation for independence. This approach ensures that each child who enters our program has the best opportunity to thrive in the years ahead.
