Danielle has a way of truly seeing my son — not just his challenges, but his strengths — and she builds his goals around who he is, not just what he needs. Tiffany works with him with so much warmth and consistency that he lights up when he sees her. She works with him so gently and consistently, and I’ve watched him gain confidence and new skills because of her dedication. I also like to add that their dedication has helped him find confidence, independence, and skills we used to hope for but weren’t sure he’d reach.
These two women have become such an important part of his journey, and I’m forever thankful. You can tell they truly love what they do, and it shows in my son’s progress. I can’t thank them enough. I highly recommend Flywheel Center, especially Danielle MaQar and Tiffany Jackson to any family seeking caring and effective ABA therapy. If you’re looking for a place where your child will be supported, understood, and genuinely cared for, I cannot recommend Danielle and Tiffany at Flywheel Center enough.
We are new to services, so our expectations were not very high, we're very happy at this point.Thank you very much.

Our in-home ABA services bring evidence-based interventions directly to Columbus residences, allowing children to practice skills in familiar settings—whether following family routines, developing social skills for neighborhood interactions, or preparing for activities at the Chattahoochee RiverWalk, National Civil War Naval Museum, and local community centers. This approach provides the comfort of home-based therapy while building real-world skills that translate to school, community, and family life.

As our 11th Avenue center opens, families will have the option to combine both approaches—using center-based therapy for intensive skill development while supplementing with in-home sessions that address daily living and community integration.
