In-home ABA therapy for your child's bright future

No one knows your child better than you do. That's why at Mastermind Behavior, a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) creates a personalized plan with you, while a carefully matched therapist works one-on-one with your child at home. As a BCBA-owned and led practice, we put your child’s care first.

You don't need to walk this journey alone

  1. We listen first

    A free call about your child and where you would like support. Then we check your insurance benefits for you.

  2. We get to know your child

    A BCBA gets to know your child's skills, challenges and personality over a video call, about a week after your documents are in.

  3. We set goals together

    Your priorities and your child's needs shape the program. We take care of the insurance authorization for you.

  4. Therapy begins at home

    The same therapist works one-to-one with your child, 2 to 4 hours per session, several days a week. You stay in the room and learn the strategies too. Your BCBA supervises and adjusts the plan as the data comes in.

The Mastermind Behavior team believes in your child's potential

We are very, very picky about the therapists we hire. Every child has a BCBA who designs their program, supervises the therapist in your home and never stops listening to you.

How soon can we start?

We are now accepting new families. After your first call, a BCBA assessment by video call is usually scheduled about a week after your documents are in.

What ages do you work with?

We welcome children and young adults from age 2 through 21.

Does my child need a diagnosis first?

You can contact us at any point. Insurance authorizes ABA therapy once there is a written autism diagnosis, and our intake team will point you to evaluation options in your state.

How many hours a week is therapy?

Every program is personal. After the assessment, your BCBA recommends the weekly hours that fit your child's goals, and we plan the schedule around your family's routine.

What will it cost?

If your child has Medicaid, therapy is free, even when Medicaid is secondary to another plan. For other plans, we verify your benefits and walk you through what you will pay before anything starts.

Where do sessions take place?

At home, in the everyday routines where your child uses the skills: mealtimes, getting dressed, play and homework.

What are sessions like?

Sessions are play-based and built around your child's interests. Your therapist follows your child's cues and takes breaks when needed. Every child is different, so each program looks a little different too. We always treat your child and your family with respect.

Who will come to our home?

A therapist we match to your family, supervised by your child's BCBA. In Georgia and North Carolina, every therapist is a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT). In New Jersey, therapists complete 40 hours of RBT training before they start. Our BCBAs also train them on the job. We know you are welcoming someone into your home. We respect your wishes.

Your child's diagnosis does not define them

Nurturing potential. Inspiring hope. Creating futures.
