ABA Therapy in Miami
Miami is the most populous city in Miami-Dade County and the largest city in Southeast Florida. With a population of over 440,000 and one of the most diverse communities in the country, Miami families seeking ABA therapy have historically faced long waitlists and limited access to bilingual providers. Sunshine Behavioral Health Services serves families throughout Miami with in-home, school-based, and telehealth ABA therapy — with full services in both English and Spanish.
Miami is one of the most bilingual cities in the United States. More than 70 percent of Miami residents speak a language other than English at home, with Spanish being by far the most common. Our clinical team delivers all services — therapy sessions, parent training, BCBA consultations, and administrative communication — in both English and Spanish. No translation service. Real bilingual care from your first phone call.
Miami-Dade County Public Schools is the fourth-largest school district in the United States, serving more than 350,000 students. The district operates hundreds of Exceptional Student Education (ESE) programs across Miami. Our school-based ABA team works inside Miami-Dade County public schools, attending IEP meetings, coordinating with ESE staff, and delivering direct therapy support during the school day.
We serve all Miami neighborhoods including Brickell, Coral Way, Little Havana, Coconut Grove, Wynwood, Little Haiti, Midtown, Downtown Miami, Allapattah, Overtown, and the Upper Eastside. Our therapists travel to your home or work inside your child’s school — no commute required for your family.
