ABA is evidenced-based therapy that has two primary areas of focus: Skill Building and Behavior Support. We take socially significant skills and break them down into smaller components that we teach until mastery and then continue to build upon them. These skills are taught through play and incorporate your child’s interests. Strengths are expanded upon and deficits or areas of need are addressed to provide your child with the skills needed to be successful in their environment.

During your child’s initial intake, the MAC clinical team will meet with you and your child to identify areas of strength, concerns, and goals for your child. Following this assessment, the clinical team, in collaboration with the recommendation made from your child’s prescribing physician, will recommend the number of hours of ABA therapy per week. Typically, a range of 28-35 hours per week is recommended based on the number and type of treatment goals addressed in therapy.

We currently do not work with a transportation company. We rely on the parent or guardian to drop off and pick up.

We will need a copy of your child’s initial ASD diagnostic report, copy of insurance card(s), and subscriber form (if applicable). We will also provide you with a written order to be completed with your doctor and with consents to obtain information forms for your child’s primary care physician and diagnosing doctor.

Before starting services, we will complete a verification of benefits with your insurance provider. Our clinic coordinators will then set up a call to go over any out-of-pocket costs with you.
