One of the first questions families ask us is simple: should therapy happen at home or at a center? The honest answer is that both work — and the right choice depends on your child and your family's routine.
The case for in-home ABA
In-home therapy meets your child in their most familiar environment. Skills are practiced exactly where they'll be used — at the kitchen table, during a bedtime routine, with siblings nearby. It's often the most comfortable place to start, especially for younger children. Learn more about our at-home ABA.
The case for center-based ABA
Our center-based therapy offers a structured space with fewer distractions and rich opportunities for peer interaction. Predictable routines and dedicated therapy areas help many children stay focused and build social skills. You can take a look inside our Bronx and Brooklyn centers.
How to decide
- Consider your child's comfort. Does a new, structured space feel exciting or overwhelming?
- Think about goals. Social and peer-play goals often benefit from a center; daily-living skills often shine at home.
- Factor in your schedule. Sessions can flex around your family's day either way.
