ABA Therapy in Aventura
Aventura is an affluent, master-planned city in the northeastern corner of Miami-Dade County, situated between the Broward County line to the north and North Miami Beach to the south. Known for Aventura Mall — one of the largest shopping centers in the United States — and its high-rise waterfront residences along the Intracoastal Waterway, Aventura is home to a diverse and internationally oriented community. Sunshine Behavioral Health Services provides BCBA-supervised ABA therapy to families throughout Aventura and the surrounding northeastern Miami-Dade area.
Aventura’s community is notably international and multilingual. The city has a significant Jewish and Israeli population alongside large Venezuelan, Brazilian, Colombian, and Argentine communities. Our clinical team delivers all ABA therapy services in both English and Spanish. We bring cultural awareness and sensitivity to every family we serve in Aventura, ensuring that language and cultural background are never barriers to accessing quality ABA therapy.
Aventura is served by Miami-Dade County Public Schools and is home to Aventura City of Excellence School (ACES), a highly rated K–8 charter school, and Don Soffer Aventura High School, which opened in 2021. Both schools have Exceptional Student Education (ESE) programs. Our school-based ABA therapy team works directly inside Aventura area schools, attending IEP meetings, coordinating with ESE staff and classroom teachers, and delivering direct behavioral therapy support during the school day. Families near the Broward County border may also be served by our Broward team depending on school district placement.
We serve families across Aventura including the Turnberry Isle area, Williams Island, Porto Vita, Harbor Centre, and communities along Biscayne Boulevard and Country Club Drive. Our therapists travel to your home — no commute required for your family.
