01

In-home ABA therapy puts the learning where it matters most — inside your child’s real world. Skills taught at home generalise faster because they are practiced in the same environment where your child eats, plays, and spends most of their time. Your child’s BCBA designs every session to fit your home routines, and your family is included as an active partner throughout.

Who this is for: Best for toddlers and preschoolers, children with anxiety about new environments, and families who want maximum scheduling flexibility.

What is included

✓  BCBA-supervised from day one

✓  Naturalistic environment teaching

✓  Flexible scheduling around your family

✓  Available across all 4 counties

ABA therapy delivered at your child’s home in their most natural learning environment.

02

School-Based ABA Services

School is where many behavioral challenges are most visible — and where the most learning can happen. Our school-based ABA therapists work inside the classroom to support behavior, social skills, and academic engagement. We attend IEP meetings, collaborate with teachers and ESE coordinators, and align therapy goals with what the school is working on. Progress in school and at home are tracked together.

Who this is for: Best for school-age children ages 5 to 12 with IEP goals, behavior challenges in the classroom, or social skill deficits with peers.

What is included

✓  IEP coordination included

✓  Classroom behavior support

✓  Peer interaction skill building

✓  Works alongside existing school services

Our therapists work directly inside the classroom alongside teachers and ESE staff.

03

Parent & Family Training

The hours your child spends outside of therapy are just as important as the hours inside it. Parent training closes that gap. Your child’s BCBA teaches you the same techniques used in sessions — how to prompt skills, how to respond to challenging behaviors, and how to build independence in daily routines. Families who complete parent training consistently see faster, more lasting progress.

Who this is for: Included with every ABA therapy program. Also available as a standalone service for families who want coaching without a full therapy program.

What is included

✓  BCBA-led training sessions

✓  Bilingual English and Spanish

✓  Strategies for home routines

✓  Covered by most insurance plans

We teach families the exact strategies our therapists use — so progress happens all day, not just in sessions.

04

A Functional Behavior Assessment is not a diagnosis — it is a clinical analysis. Your child’s BCBA observes behavior, reviews records, interviews parents and teachers, and uses standardised assessment tools to understand why specific behaviors are happening and what maintains them. The result is a written FBA report that becomes the foundation of your child’s individualised treatment plan. Nothing in our therapy is guesswork.

Who this is for: Required before any ABA therapy program begins. Also available as a standalone assessment for families, schools, or other providers who need a behavior analysis.

What is included

✓  BCBA-conducted assessment

✓  Identifies behavior function

✓  Written FBA report

✓  Foundation for treatment plan

Every ABA therapy program starts here — a thorough BCBA-led assessment of your child’s behavior and skills.

05

ABA therapy without data is not ABA therapy. Every goal in your child’s treatment plan is specific and measurable. Therapists collect data on every session. Your BCBA reviews that data regularly and adjusts the plan based on what it shows — not assumptions or impressions. Families receive clear progress reports so you always know where your child stands, what we are working on next, and what the data says.

Who this is for: Ongoing component of every ABA therapy program. Not a standalone service — this is how every Sunshine BHS therapy case is managed.

What is included

✓  Measurable goals from day one

✓  Data collected every session

✓  Regular BCBA plan reviews

✓  Transparent parent progress reports

Every goal is tracked with real data. Treatment plans are reviewed and updated regularly.

06

Early Intervention Program

The early years are the most critical window for intervention. Research consistently shows that children who receive intensive ABA therapy between ages 2 and 5 make the most significant and lasting gains in communication, social skills, and adaptive behavior. Our early intervention program is play-based and naturalistic — sessions look like fun, not drills. But every moment is guided by evidence and tracked with data.

Who this is for: Best for toddlers and preschoolers who have received or are awaiting an autism diagnosis, or who have developmental delays identified by a paediatrician.

What is included

✓  Ages 2 to 5

✓  Strongest evidence base

✓  Play-based naturalistic approach

✓  Communication and social focus

ABA therapy for children ages 2 to 5 — when the brain is most responsive to learning.

07

Center-Based ABA Therapy

Center-based ABA therapy provides a structured, consistent clinical environment where children can receive intensive programming alongside peers. The center setting allows for group skill-building activities, peer interaction practice, and access to a full clinical team in one location. Many children benefit from a combination of center-based and in-home services — your child’s BCBA will recommend the right mix based on their goals.

Who this is for: Best for children who benefit from a structured learning environment, need peer interaction practice, or require higher intensity programming.

What is included

✓  Structured clinical setting

✓  Peer interaction opportunities

✓  Full clinical team on-site

✓  BCBA-supervised programs

Structured ABA therapy in a dedicated clinical environment with peer interaction opportunities.

08

Telehealth ABA Services

Telehealth ABA therapy brings clinical expertise directly to your screen — no travel required. Our telehealth program is especially valuable for families in Monroe County and the Florida Keys, those with limited transportation, and working parents who need scheduling flexibility. Telehealth sessions are used for parent training, BCBA consultations, behaviour plan reviews, and some direct skill-building programs.

Who this is for: Best for parent training, BCBA consultations, behaviour plan monitoring, and families in the Florida Keys or with transportation challenges.

What is included

✓  Secure video sessions

✓  No commute required

✓  Parent training focus

✓  Available across Southeast Florida

Remote BCBA sessions and parent training available across all four counties including the Florida Keys.

09

Social Skills Development

Many children with autism struggle with social interactions — reading facial expressions, understanding conversation turns, initiating friendships, and responding to peers. Our social skills program uses ABA techniques to teach these skills systematically, practice them in structured settings, and then generalise them to real-world situations. We work with children of all ages, from preschoolers learning to play alongside peers to teens practicing workplace communication.

Who this is for: Best for children and teens who have mastered basic communication but struggle with peer interaction, social cues, conversation skills, or friendship-building.

What is included

✓  Evidence-based social skills curriculum

✓  Natural environment practice

✓  Peer interaction opportunities

✓  Ages 3 to 21

Structured ABA programs to build communication, peer interaction, and relationship skills.

10

Receiving an autism diagnosis is overwhelming. Most families do not know what to do next — what therapies to pursue, how to navigate insurance, what to tell the school, or how to plan for the future. Our diagnosis support service guides families through each of these steps. We explain ABA therapy clearly, verify your insurance at no cost, and help you build a plan that fits your child and your family’s situation.

Who this is for: Best for families who have just received a diagnosis or who are in the assessment process and want to understand what ABA therapy involvement would look like.

What is included

✓  Diagnostic process navigation

✓  ABA intake coordination

✓  Insurance verification

✓  Next steps planning

Guidance and support for families navigating the steps after an autism diagnosis.

11

Adaptive Living Skills

Independence is the long-term goal of ABA therapy. Adaptive living skills — personal hygiene, meal preparation, household tasks, community safety, money management, and self-advocacy — give children and young adults the tools to navigate daily life with greater confidence and less dependence on caregivers. These skills are often the most meaningful outcomes ABA therapy can achieve for older children and young adults.

Who this is for: Best for school-age children and teenagers working toward greater independence at home, at school, or in the community.

What is included

✓  Self-care and hygiene routines

✓  Household and community skills

✓  Functional independence focus

✓  Ages 3 to 21

Teaching daily living and independence skills that reduce caregiver burden and build confidence.
