At Above and Beyond Therapy, we offer a structured and supportive environment where children can thrive. Our center-based ABA therapy programs are designed to provide comprehensive care and promote skill development through various activities and treatments for children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) aged 2 to 18.
A typical day at an Above and Beyond ABA clinic includes a combination of individual and group activities tailored to each child’s needs. This includes morning circle time, play-based therapy, outdoor play, and individual therapy sessions. Introducing various activities serves to help each child develop their social skills, motor skills, and cognitive abilities in fun and interactive ways.
The facilities at Above and Beyond are designed to provide a safe, comfortable, and stimulating environment for children. While each ABA facility may have unique features, they all share the same high-quality experience with individual therapy rooms, play areas, and group rooms. Having dedicated spaces with different equipment provides specialized places for different activities.
We believe in individualized care, looking at each child’s unique skills and objectives. The individualized behavior assessment (IBA) provides insight into what will create success for your child. This includes:
Establishing Routine:
Helping children understand and follow daily routines to build structure and predictability
Improving Social Interactions:
Enhancing verbal and non-verbal communication skills to encourage positive interactions with others.
Developing Play Skills:
Functional play skills promote cognitive, social, and motor development.
Building Adaptive Skills:
Teaching self-care and daily living skills promotes independence.
Focusing on Health and Safety:
Ensuring children learn important safety skills and healthy habits.
In our ABA therapy clinics, we strongly focus on achieving these goals by creating a supportive and well-designed environment.
Choosing center-based ABA therapy at Above and Beyond offers numerous advantages over home-based therapy. Our facilities provide a structured, supportive, and social environment that enhances learning and development.
Center-based therapy provides the space for the children to engage with new people, toys, and materials. This allows them to learn new skills in a safe and engaging space. Board-certified behavior analysts (BCBAs) are also present at the center for additional supervision and monitoring, ensuring the child progresses positively
Learning in Both One-on-One and Group Settings
Children at our ABA therapy centers receive individualized attention through one-on-one sessions with behavior therapists. Additionally, they participate in group activities that foster peer interaction and social skills. Combining 1:1 therapy and group sessions helps children develop a well-rounded skill set.
Develop Social and Communication Skills
Our center-based ABA therapy programs include circle time and group activities that allow children to engage with peers of the same age and level of functioning in a small, controlled group setting. These interactions help children practice communication, cooperation, and social skills in a nurturing environment.
Caregiver Support and Training
We aim to empower families with the tools and knowledge they need to support their child’s development at home. Our caregiver support and training sessions provide practical strategies for generalization skills in various environments, ensuring consistency and progress.

Our ABA therapy clinics provide all the benefits of a regular preschool as well as specialized ABA therapy tailored specifically for children with autism.

Skills Development:
Our program emphasizes the development of prerequisite skills needed to transition into mainstream environments and succeed academically.
