ABA is not what you may have read

What you may have heard about ABA

  • ABA is 40 hours a week of drills.
  • ABA tries to make kids act "normal."
  • Parents sit on the sidelines.

How we actually do it

  • Hours fit your child's needs and your family's week.
  • Play-based and assent-based. If your child says no, we listen and adjust.
  • The goals are yours: talking, toileting, safety, fewer meltdowns.
  • Ten to 20% of hours go to coaching you.

Questions Westminster parents ask

Do we have to wait for anything before starting ABA?
No. You can call early intervention, the school district and us on the same day. Health First Colorado's ABA benefit does not even require the diagnosis you already have.
Can my child do ABA and speech therapy at the same time?
Yes. We don't provide speech or occupational therapy ourselves, so we coordinate with your child's speech and OT providers to keep everyone working toward the same goals.
How much does ABA cost in Westminster?
Most families with Health First Colorado pay $0. We also accept Aetna and most major plans, and we check your benefits for free before anything starts.
