Preschool Camp ABC

At Preschool Camp ABC, we understand that it can be challenging to know if your child needs speech therapy. If your child is diagnosed with autism, speech therapy is typically recommended since many autistic individuals struggle with social communication. Even if your child is very verbal, they may need to work on communication skills such as responding to questions, initiating or ending conversations, changing topics, and understanding non-verbal cues. Speech therapy plays a major role in early autism intervention and helps children to become more independent and confident. If your child is very quiet, says few words, or does not speak at all, that could be a sign that they need speech therapy. We are here to help and provide you with everything you need to know about speech therapy and how it can help your child.

At Preschool Camp ABC, our speech therapists are dedicated to helping children of all ages to communicate effectively with others. We use a variety of methods, including gestures, signs, verbal speech, and Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC), to help our students. Our speech therapists can also help with a variety of other communication-related skills such as nonverbal communication, forming speech, communicating thoughts and feelings, understanding and responding to questions, discerning facial expressions and their corresponding emotions, noticing and understanding body language, feeding and swallowing, and even stuttering. We strive to equip our students with the communication tools they need to be successful in life.

At Preschool Camp ABC, we specialize in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy – a science-based learning and behavior therapy. Through ABA, we help children and adults improve communication and social skills, increase daily living skills, and reduce challenging behaviors. Our goal is to promote independence and healthy behaviors while teaching helpful skills. Learn more about ABA therapy with our comprehensive guide.

At Preschool Camp ABC, we understand it’s a big decision to consider ABA therapy for your child. That’s why we strive to provide comprehensive information to help you make an informed decision. Our guide to ABA therapy covers topics such as how to identify high quality ABA providers, the difference between ABA therapy and “curing” autism, and how ABA therapy helps children learn productive habits and communication skills to reach their fullest potential. We hope this helps you make the best decision for your child and your family.

At Preschool Camp ABC, we understand the confusion and stress that comes with trying to figure out the cost of ABA therapy. That’s why we’re here to help. Generally, ABA is covered by insurance when your child has an autism diagnosis. Insurance companies typically only authorize care for autism diagnoses since ABA therapy has been extensively researched and its benefits are clear. To make sure that ABA therapy is covered for your child and that the provider you choose is in-network, be sure to check with your insurance policy. To further guide you through this process, we’ve created a helpful guide. Visit our website to learn more about ABA therapy and its cost.
