Our Most Frequently Asked Questions About ABA Therapy

Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy is a data-driven intervention to change behavior using scientific research methods. While ABA is most commonly implemented for those on the Autism spectrum, ABA therapy is proven to help with all ranges of behavioral issues.

ABA therapy works by changing the environment and behaviors to help increase speech, gross and fine motor skills, self-help skills, receptive language, and social skills. By increasing these skills and helping our clients adapt to their environment, they are more successful in interacting with those around them. These skills then assist with decreasing undesirable behaviors such as aggression, repetitive behaviors, disruptive behavior, self-harm behaviors, and other behaviors that prevent them from being part of their community. ABA is focused on continuous data collection to ensure that we are making a true change in our client’s lives.

Hopefully soon! In the summer of 2019, Governor Abbott signed into law Texas Medicaid funding for ABA therapy. BUT, clinics such as Behavior TLC are still not able to provide services through Medicaid as they have not established a contracting process. Once there is a contracting process, we will apply to become credentialed with Texas State Medicaid. Then, as soon as we are able to provide ABA services through Medicaid we will be sure to announce it! Here is the link to the Texas ABA Public Policy Group.

Yes, most major insurance companies will offer ABA coverage for those children who have an ASD diagnosis. Many insurance companies are also covering in-house and telehealth ABA therapies during COVID-19 concerns. Every plan is different, please contact us today and we can verify your insurance coverage for you.

All children in the state of Texas with an ASD diagnosis are excused from public school to attend ABA therapy with a school excuse note from the clinic. Private schools with ABA principles, such as our very own Grand Oak Academy, are also available to parents to ensure that children with autism, speech delays, or other types of developmental disabilities receive a quality education at a comfortable pace.
