Where We Work

Simple Integration

From first conversation to classroom support in three steps.

Introductory Call

A 15-minute conversation to understand your school's needs and explore how a partnership could work.

Assessment & Approval

We handle the clinical assessment and insurance approvals directly, with no administrative burden on the school.

Comprehensive Support

A dedicated RBT joins your student in the classroom — coordinating with the family and care team to ensure consistency everywhere.

What ABA actually is

ABA — Applied Behavior Analysis — is the evidence-based practice of teaching meaningful skills (and reducing behaviors that get in the way) by observing what works for an individual student and adjusting in real time.

In a school setting, that means a trained specialist working alongside your student in the classroom, reinforcing the lessons your teachers are already delivering. No clinic, no removal, no separate room — just additional support, present where it's needed.

FAQ

  • Is there really no cost to my school?

    Correct. We bill insurance directly for in-school RBT support and BCBA supervision. Your school pays nothing — no fees, no retainers, and nothing passed on through tuition.

  • What insurance plans do you accept?

    We're in-network with Aetna, Cigna, and Horizon BCBSNJ. If your plan isn't on that list, send it over before your first call and we'll verify benefits within one business day.

  • How long does the assessment take?

    After the introductory call, the clinical assessment and insurance authorization typically take two to four weeks. We handle every step — your school doesn't carry any administrative load.

  • What's the difference between a BCBA and an RBT?

    A Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) is a master's-level clinician who designs the treatment plan and supervises sessions. A Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) is the clinician working 1:1 with your student in the classroom, implementing the plan and taking data.

  • Do you serve outside Monmouth County?

    We focus on Monmouth County, NJ so our team can be reliably present in your school each day. If you're nearby and unsure, reach out — we'll let you know honestly whether we can serve you well.

  • Can my child stay in their current school?

    Yes. That's the whole point. Our specialists come to your child's classroom so the student doesn't have to leave the school they love or the community they're part of.
