How do you set goals for each child?

Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs) assess each child to create a personalized treatment plan. They consider parent interviews, biopsychosocial documents, and reinforcer profiles to better understand the child’s needs.

We also value caregiver input. Parents know their children best, so we regularly consult with them to adjust goals as needed.

How do you track progress? 

We start with standardized assessments to establish a baseline. Then, we use ongoing testing to measure growth and set new goals. Our evaluations are tailored to each child’s age and skill level.

Will my insurance cover ABA Therapy?

We accept most private insurance plans, including self-funded and fully funded options. We also accept IowaHHS (Medicaid), Tricare, grants, and state funding sources to help reduce out-of-pocket costs.
