How We Help

The Journey To Enrollment

Treatment Delivery

We bring care to your child in a warm and nurturing environment while focusing on the intensity of engaging learning opportunities. Our playful and interactive ABA intervention, individualized for your child, results in positive outcomes.

Our Facilities

Our state-of-the-art Behavioral Health facilities, located in Farmington and Guilford, Connecticut are modeled after preschool and early learning environments to replicate the natural, developmentally-appropriate environment children thrive in. The children rush to the Activity Room to bounce on the trampoline or jump in the ball pit or request a trip to the Imagination Room where trains abound and our cozy cottage affords opportunities to play pretend. This environment paired with our warm and caring staff, emphasis on naturalistic teaching strategies, and a team of industry leading professionals, leads to meaningful results.

Our Treatment

Treatment is carried out through intensive Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) intervention programs 5 days per week. Individualized assessments help us to determine if half or full-day programs are right for your child. Your child’s skilled team, consisting of behavior technicians and a board certified behavior analyst (BCBA), will maximize learning opportunities each and every day. Progress is monitored and programming is adjusted as often as needed to get the best outcomes for your child.

The fun and learning start at morning drop-off and continue throughout the day, learning through play time, daily routines, and structured activities. The children stay engaged and motivated while on the move, snuggling in a cozy bean bag chair, eating snack with a peer, or while working on a project with friends. 

Treatment for your child is provided face-to-face in our center. As much as possible, we offer parent training and meetings face to face as well. If desired, we also offer telehealth parent training where allowed by insurance.
