Melissa Cole

At Melissa Cole, we specialize in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy. ABA therapy is rooted in the science of learning and behavior and through its principles, we can help children and adults learn to improve communication, social, and daily living skills while addressing problematic behaviors. Our goal is to provide ABA therapy that helps promote independence and reduce harmful behaviors. We have a comprehensive guide that provides all the information you need to know about ABA therapy.

At Melissa Cole, we understand the importance of making the right decision for your child. We believe that Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy can be a great tool to help improve communication skills, introduce productive habits, and reduce harmful behaviors. We caution that providers who aim to “cure” autism should be avoided. Top-notch ABA therapy should focus on helping people learn to their fullest potential while embracing their individual personality traits. We hope this guide helps you make the best decision for your family, and answer the question: Is ABA right for my child?

At Melissa Cole, we understand how important it is to understand the costs of ABA therapy. Generally, ABA services are covered by insurance if you have an autism diagnosis as it is the only diagnosis insurance will usually authorize. As always, we recommend you check with your insurance plan to make sure ABA is covered for your child’s diagnosis and that the provider you are seeking care from is in-network. To help, we have put together a comprehensive guide to ABA therapy and its associated costs. Visit our website to learn more about ABA therapy and its cost.
