I hardly do reviews but I had to take the time to give much deserved accolades to Kelly! While getting my son tested for Autism she was absolutely amazing. It’s very rare he engages with anyone and she made him feel so comfortable that he opened up like a book. She had so many suggestions to help me with his day to day as well as at school and they have been such a game changer for him.

We are beyond grateful for the exceptional care and support our son received. Their dedication and expertise in ABA therapy have truly transformed our family’s journey. Our BCBA provided invaluable strategies that gave us confidence in managing daily challenges, while our RBT built an incredible bond with our son, helping him thrive.

Questions Alexandria Parents Ask Us



How do I get started with ABA therapy in Alexandria, VA?

Getting started typically begins with a consultation and evaluation from a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA). During this assessment, the team learns about your child’s strengths, challenges, and developmental goals. Based on the results, a personalized treatment plan is created to support meaningful progress. Therapy may take place at home, school, or in a clinic depending on what works best for your family. For a step-by-step overview, read your essential guide: how to get started with ABA therapy.

Can ABA therapy help my child improve communication and social skills?

Yes. ABA therapy is widely used to help children with autism develop stronger communication and social skills. Through structured teaching and positive reinforcement, children can learn how to express their needs, follow instructions, and interact more confidently with others. These skills often help children participate more successfully at home, school, and in the community. You can learn more about how the approach works in the science behind ABA therapy.

What strategies do ABA therapists use to teach social skills?

ABA therapists often use techniques such as modeling, role-playing, and social stories to help children understand everyday interactions. These strategies break down social situations into clear, manageable steps so children can practice appropriate responses. Social stories are especially helpful for teaching routines, expectations, and emotional understanding in a structured way. Learn more about this approach in how social stories are used in ABA therapy.

Yes. While early intervention is common, ABA therapy can also support older children and teens. Programs may focus on social relationships, communication, independence, and everyday life skills that help prepare for adolescence and adulthood. Each treatment plan is tailored to the child’s developmental stage and goals. To learn more about how ABA can support teens, read benefits of ABA therapy for adolescents.

What if my child struggles or resists ABA therapy at first?

Some children need time to adjust to new routines or therapists. ABA professionals often focus first on building trust and making sessions engaging through play-based activities and positive reinforcement. Therapists can also adjust the pace and structure of sessions to keep children motivated and comfortable. Over time, this supportive approach helps children participate more confidently. You can learn more in ABA therapy challenges: understanding and overcoming them.
