Steps to Begin Your ABA Therapy Journey

Speak with one of our Outreach and Family Support Coordinators to assess whether your child would benefit from our early intervention and school-readiness autism therapy model. Our team will describe what ABA therapy is, the Rise Up Model, and assist with collecting documentation to get the process started. We will also verify your insurance benefits and talk about financial assistance and payment plans to ensure ABA therapy is affordable and accessible for your family. 

Once you decide you would like to move forward with services, an initial assessment begins. Following approval (i.e., authorization) from your insurance provider, our Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBS) will conduct an assessment in our autism center. This assessment allows us to create an individualized treatment plan for your child. The personalized treatment plan will be discussed with your family to ensure the family's goals are aligned with the clinicians.

Following the initial assessment/intake, the clinician will submit the treatment plan and medical diagnosis report to your insurance provider to request treatment authorization. Depending on your insurance, approval to begin therapy could take a couple of days to a couple of weeks.

Once insurance authorization is received and we are approved to start therapy, your child’s journey begins. Your child’s support team includes a BCBA and an RBT, both dedicated to helping your child achieve their goals and reach age-appropriate milestones.
