Our BCBAs conduct regular progress evaluations every 6 months and adjust treatment recommendations based on your child’s development, skill acquisition, and evolving family goals.

Recommended therapy hours vary based on your child’s age, needs, and goals. Early intervention programs often involve 15-25 hours weekly, while school-age children might receive 10-20 hours depending on their specific treatment plan.
