ABA Therapy in Kendall
Kendall is a large, unincorporated suburban community in southwestern Miami-Dade County and one of the most family-oriented areas in South Florida. Stretching along the SW 88th Street corridor known as Kendall Drive, the area encompasses numerous residential subdivisions, top-rated schools, and established amenities including Dadeland Mall and The Falls shopping center. Kendall has grown into one of the most desirable suburban areas in Miami-Dade for families, with a large and diverse middle-class population. Sunshine Behavioral Health Services provides BCBA-supervised ABA therapy to families throughout Kendall and the surrounding southwestern Miami-Dade area.
Kendall is home to a large and established bilingual community. The area has significant Cuban-American, Venezuelan, Nicaraguan, Colombian, and Peruvian populations, and Spanish is widely spoken as a primary language in many Kendall households. Our clinical team delivers all ABA therapy services in both English and Spanish — therapy sessions, parent training, BCBA consultations, and all administrative communication. Full bilingual clinical care from your very first call.
Kendall is served by Miami-Dade County Public Schools and is home to several highly regarded public schools including Killian Senior High School, G. Holmes Braddock Senior High School, and Miami Killian Senior High School, all of which have Exceptional Student Education (ESE) programs. Our school-based ABA therapy team works directly inside Kendall area schools, attending IEP meetings, coordinating with ESE staff and classroom teachers, and delivering direct behavioral therapy support during the school day.
We serve families across all Kendall neighborhoods and surrounding communities including Kendale Lakes, Country Walk, The Hammocks, Sunset, Westchester, and communities along Kendall Drive, SW 137th Avenue, and SW 107th Avenue. Our therapists travel to your home — no commute required for your family.
