ABA Therapy in Miami Beach
Miami Beach is a barrier island city in Miami-Dade County, connected to the mainland by a series of causeways and situated between Biscayne Bay and the Atlantic Ocean. While internationally known as a tourist and entertainment destination — famous for South Beach, its Art Deco Historic District, and Ocean Drive — Miami Beach is also home to a substantial permanent residential community of families, many of whom have lived on the island for generations. Sunshine Behavioral Health Services provides BCBA-supervised ABA therapy to Miami Beach families in-home and via telehealth, serving the city’s diverse permanent residential community across South Beach, Mid-Beach, and North Beach.
Miami Beach has one of the most internationally diverse permanent residential communities in South Florida. The city has a significant Jewish and Israeli population, alongside large Venezuelan, Colombian, Brazilian, Argentine, and Cuban-American families. Our clinical team delivers all ABA therapy services in both English and Spanish. We also bring cultural sensitivity to the diverse international families who call Miami Beach home, ensuring that language and background are never barriers to quality ABA therapy.
Miami Beach is served by Miami-Dade County Public Schools and is home to Miami Beach Senior High School, one of the city’s primary public high schools, along with several K–8 schools with Exceptional Student Education (ESE) programs. Our school-based ABA therapy team works directly inside Miami Beach area schools, attending IEP meetings, coordinating with ESE staff and classroom teachers, and delivering direct behavioral therapy support during the school day. For Miami Beach families, telehealth parent training is also a popular option given the city’s island layout and parking challenges.
We serve families across all Miami Beach neighborhoods including South Beach, Mid-Beach, North Beach, the Normandy Isles area, and communities along Collins Avenue, Alton Road, and Washington Avenue. Our therapists travel to your home via the causeways — no commute required for your family.
