ABA - Our Approach
Like every parent, you are dreaming that your child will live a purposeful life without limits. We invite you to embark on an extraordinary journey with us to achieve remarkable results through Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) for autism care.
Using our proven ABA approach, we will uncover your child’s passions and spark his or her interests in order to foster an ability to learn new skills and to ultimately become more independent!
Imagine your child looking at you when you say his or her name, sharing electronics and toys with a sibling, or having a conversation with you – At Behavior Frontiers, our goal is to expand your child’s skills in these areas and more! We focus on building on your child’s strengths, while teaching, rewarding, and catching your child “being good!”
You may also be wondering about the times when your child falls on the floor crying when you say “No” – We’ve got this! Together, our team of BCBAs and expert behavior technicians will show your child that inappropriate behaviors don’t work and empower you to manage and eliminate these challenges from your everyday life!
Where do we provide our services?
In-Home ABA
We come to you! Learning in the home setting may be the most comfortable for your child. In the home, your child can learn in familiar surroundings during daily routines. Family members can easily participate. Home-based ABA is ideal during the pandemic since it avoids contact with large groups of other children.
School-Based ABA
As a school shadow, we can accompany your child as a 1:1 aide during the school day to help your child to access his or her curriculum in the least restrictive environment. We can support your child to meet IEP goals such as learning to pay attention, stay on task, tolerate transitions, play with peers on the playground, and more.
Community-Based ABA
If you could use some help making trips to the grocery store, dentist office, or park more successful, we can help by easily incorporating community outings to your child’s program. Our clinicians will collaborate with your family to make these everyday outings easy and enjoyable for everyone.
Center-Based ABA
Our state-of-the art centers will provide a safe, fun, and robust treatment setting to inspire your child to soak up new information with 1:1 support and with peers. Your child will have access to a wide variety of learning materials and equipment, as well as to groups of other children to promote friendships and community.

Our Programs
Early Intervention Programs
0-3 years: This plan includes parent involvement and provides the foundation for teaching your child new skills like crawling, walking, talking, listening, eating, and even playing! We celebrate every “first” and every milestone.
Comprehensive Programs
3-8 years: A comprehensive ABA program teaches new skills such as communication, socialization, play, self-care, cognition, executive functioning, and more, while also reducing problem behaviors. Comprehensive programs typically include structured and naturalistic teaching, play dates, community outings, and clinical team meetings.
Focused Programs
8 to 25 years: A focused ABA program targets teaching your child functional skills, such as compliance, social communication, self-care skills, safety skills, and independent leisure skills, while also reducing severe problem behaviors.
Parent Consult Programs
Family involvement is essential for the ultimate effectiveness of your child’s ABA program. You will learn how to extend the treatment throughout your child’s daily routine in all settings and become empowered to make informed decisions regarding your child’s program.
Custom Curriculum
Behavior Frontiers’ treatment curriculum includes over 1,000 lessons to teach your child the new skills he or she needs in a variety of developmental areas. When your child learns to engage in new appropriate behaviors, your child will no longer need to use problem behaviors to get needs met. We also have specialized curriculum for infant and toddlers, as well as for adolescents and young adults!
