Our Alexandria ABA Center

Situated in a quiet corner of Alexandria, our modern therapy center creates the perfect environment for children with autism to learn and grow. Each thoughtfully designed room supports different aspects of learning and development, from one-on-one instruction to group activities and play-based learning. Parents appreciate our convenient location, offering easy access from both I-495 and the GW Parkway, with free on-site parking.
Our deep roots in the Alexandria community set us apart. Our BCBAs and therapists don’t just work here – they live here, understanding the unique challenges and opportunities Alexandria families face. We’ve built strong partnerships with local schools, healthcare providers, and community organizations to create a comprehensive support network for your family.
Comprehensive ABA Services in Alexandria
Our early intervention program focuses on foundational skills during critical developmental years. Working closely with Alexandria’s early childhood programs, we help young children build communication, social, and learning readiness skills essential for success in school and life. For school-age children, we provide coordinated support that bridges school and therapy, helping them develop academic, social, and behavioral skills while building independence.
Teenagers with autism face unique challenges, which is why we’ve developed specialized teen programs focusing on life skills, social navigation, and preparation for greater independence. We incorporate Alexandria’s community resources for real-world skill practice, ensuring that skills learned in therapy translate to daily life.

The flywheel approach
Our approach to ABA therapy combines clinical excellence with compassionate care. Every child’s program is individually designed based on their unique needs, strengths, and family goals. Through careful assessment and ongoing evaluation, we target key developmental areas including natural communication, social skills, daily living skills, and academic readiness.
Community integration forms a crucial part of our therapy programs. Alexandria’s rich community resources enhance our therapy outcomes through structured outings to Windmill Hill Park, community navigation training at Alexandria Commons, and adaptive activities at Charles Houston Recreation Center. These real-world experiences help children practice and generalize their skills in natural settings.

Our ABA Clinical Excellence in Alexandria
Every child’s program at our Alexandria center is overseen by a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) who holds a master’s degree and maintains Virginia state licensure. Our BCBAs participate in ongoing professional development and specialize in different aspects of autism treatment, ensuring comprehensive care for your child.
Working directly with your child, our Registered Behavior Technicians (RBTs) provide therapy services under BCBA supervision. Each RBT completes rigorous training and certification, receives ongoing supervision, and participates in regular team training to stay current with best practices in autism treatment.
“Our mission at Flywheel Centers is to provide exceptional ABA therapy while supporting the entire family. We’re proud to serve the Alexandria community with high-quality autism services that help children reach their full potential.”
