Our Tempe ABA therapy center provides individualized services for children and teens ages 18 months through 17 years. Unlike most of our locations, our Tempe center also serves adults.

We tailor ABA therapy to each individual’s age, needs, and goals, whether that means supporting early communication and play for young children, building independence and social skills for teens, or developing everyday life skills for adults.

Services may be available for individuals with autism spectrum disorder and other qualifying developmental diagnoses, depending on clinical and insurance eligibility.

The Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) determines goals through an initial assessment, creating individualized plans for each child. Our staff will complete parent interviews and assessments to set goals and determine client needs. At Circle City’s Tempe ABA therapy center, we create a team for each child to facilitate appropriate transition planning and foster an environment featuring ongoing feedback, participation, and family communication.

At Circle City ABA, we prioritize safety above everything else. We conduct regular safety maintenance, updates, drills, and training to ensure that our centers are always safe for everyone. For example, we lock our centers to permit only known guests inside. We also conduct regular fire and emergency drills and external safety audits by local fire departments and other service providers. For additional safety, we use cameras.

To ensure the safety of our clients, we perform national background screens of all employees, as well as initial and random drug screens. In addition, we conduct daily and quarterly equipment, toys, buildings, and materials checks.

ABA Therapy plans are tailored to each individual’s specific needs. Generally, individuals will receive one-on-one therapy from a Registered Behavior Technician in both morning and afternoon sessions. The Board-Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) will create and oversee these plans.

The number of ABA therapy hours needed depends on the individual’s strengths, needs, and treatment goals. After an initial assessment, our clinical team will recommend a therapy schedule based on what is appropriate for them.

Our Tempe center offers full-time and part-time ABA therapy based on clinical recommendations and availability. Treatment recommendations may change over time as new skills develop and needs evolve.

The cost of ABA therapy depends on the individual’s treatment plan, recommended therapy hours, and insurance coverage. Many insurance plans cover ABA therapy when services meet the plan’s requirements.

Circle City ABA accepts many private insurance plans and funding options, including Mercy Care for eligible individuals. Our admissions team can help verify benefits and explain potential out-of-pocket costs before services begin.

During ABA therapy, we measure progress through assessments, ongoing data collection, and clinical team observations. The individual’s Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) regularly reviews this information to identify improving skills, areas needing additional support, and when to adjust treatment goals.

Progress looks different for everyone. Depending on individualized goals, therapy may focus on communication, social skills, independence, daily living skills, emotional regulation, safety, and other skills that support everyday life at home and in the community.

At our Tempe ABA therapy center, we accept most private, fully funded, and self-funded insurance plans, as well as state funding, Tricare, Empowerment Scholarship Accounts, and grants. We also work with commercial insurance providers, including Blue Cross Blue Shield, Cigna, Aetna, United Healthcare, Mercy Care, and others.

Our team is committed to helping reduce out-of-pocket costs for your family, both during the intake process and throughout your child’s ABA therapy. We’ll work closely with you to verify coverage and answer any questions so you can focus on your child’s progress.
