ABA Therapy in Tamarac
Tamarac is a city in northwestern Broward County originally developed as a planned retirement community in the 1960s, but today it is a diverse, mixed-age residential city that has evolved well beyond its origins. Located between Coral Springs and Lauderhill, Tamarac has become an increasingly family-oriented community with a strong Caribbean and Hispanic population. The city is known for its well-maintained neighborhoods, the Tamarac Sports Complex, and Caporella Park. Sunshine Behavioral Health Services provides BCBA-supervised ABA therapy to families throughout Tamarac and northwestern Broward County.
Tamarac has grown into one of the most diverse cities in Broward County. The city has a large Caribbean community — particularly Jamaican-American, Haitian-American, and Trinidadian families — alongside a significant and growing Hispanic population including Colombian, Venezuelan, and Cuban-American families. Our clinical team delivers all ABA therapy services in both English and Spanish, and we approach every family with genuine cultural sensitivity to Tamarac’s diverse community.
Tamarac is served by Broward County Public Schools and is home to Taravella High School — one of the largest high schools in Broward County — and J. P. Taravella High School, which serves students from both Tamarac and Coral Springs. The city also has several well-regarded elementary and middle schools with Exceptional Student Education (ESE) programs. Our school-based ABA therapy team works directly inside Tamarac 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 Tamarac neighborhoods including Mainlands, Woodlands, Kings Point, Sunflower, Heathgate, and communities along Commercial Boulevard, McNab Road, and University Drive. Our therapists travel to your home — no commute required for your family.
