"The waitlist was long enough. Now you need an evaluation that actually leads somewhere, not just another appointment." With 6-month waitlists common across Colorado, we know your family has already waited too long.
We assess your child's strengths, identify goals, and build a plan so your family can start in-home ABA therapy right away.
A licensed BCBA meets your family at home. Evaluations typically take 2 to 4 hours and include a parent interview, direct observation, and skills assessment. They observe your child in their natural environment, where behaviors, communication patterns, and daily routines are real, not performed for a stranger in a clinic.
Your BCBA talks to you about daily challenges, what you've already tried, and what you're hoping for. They watch how your child plays, communicates, and moves through their day.
No clinic. No sterile office. Just your family, your home, and a clinician who's paying attention to what actually matters. See our methodology to understand the approach behind every evaluation.
Every evaluation ends with a clear plan, not a vague report that sits in a folder.
Built around your child specifically. Not a template, not a generic checklist. A plan that reflects who your child is and where they're headed.
Goals tied to milestones that matter to your family. First words. Potty training. Getting dressed. Daily skills that change everyday life.
We submit everything to your insurance or Medicaid. You don't chase paperwork or sit on hold. We handle the authorization process for you.
We move quickly because your family has already waited long enough.
The evaluation typically takes 1-2 sessions. Your BCBA spends enough time to build an accurate picture of your child, but doesn't stretch it out over weeks of appointments.
Treatment can begin within days of authorization. Once we submit to your insurance and get the green light, we match your child with an RBT and start sessions at your home.
We don't drag it out. You've already spent enough time waiting for phone calls, referrals, and intake appointments. Our goal is to get your child from evaluation to active therapy as fast as your insurance allows.
A typical evaluation takes 2 to 4 hours. It includes a parent interview, direct observation of your child, and a skills assessment. Your BCBA uses this information to build a personalized treatment plan.
Yes, a formal ASD diagnosis from a qualified professional is required before ABA therapy can begin. If your child does not have one yet, we can point you toward diagnostic resources in Colorado.
Once the evaluation is complete and insurance is verified, therapy can often begin within 1 to 2 weeks. We move quickly because we know every week without therapy matters.
