At Verbal Beginnings in Rockville, we understand the importance of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy. ABA therapy is rooted in the science of learning and behavior and has been used to help children and adults improve communication skills, social skills, and daily living skills, as well as address problematic or challenging behaviors. Our goal is to use ABA therapy to help those we serve become more independent and reduce harmful behaviors. Read on to learn more about ABA therapy and the services Verbal Beginnings provides.

At Verbal Beginnings in Rockville, we understand that the cost of ABA therapy may be a concern for many families. While ABA is typically covered by insurance if your child has an autism diagnosis, it’s important to check with your insurance plan to make sure it’s covered for your specific diagnosis and that the provider is in-network. To make sure you have all the information you need, we’ve created a guide that explains everything you need to know about ABA therapy.
