The children's spot has been life changing fir our family. We have been going there for about 4…read moreyears. My son started a 2 and half years old with Aba, speech and it services. He went from being non verbal to being able to say full sentences. His social skills have become amazing and over all playing skills have grown. The staff has gone to the moon and back for our family especially since my daughter was diagnosed at 18 months. The over all environment is amazing. I walk away feeling confident I've been provided the tools and knowledge to help my kids succeed and thrive. I don't know what I would do without our spot family. Thank you

This place is truly amazing. We have been to another private therapist that was just mediocre but…read morethis place it the best. They have multiple treatment rooms, a multi sensory room and and large gym. The therapists work hard to get to really know your child and target their needs and strengths. Communication between staff and family is great and they are open to discussing different treatment options and goals. They are also willing to work with the school and IEP teams. My son does SP, OT, and ABA there and we couldn't be more happy with his progress do far.

I started my son here in the Winter of 2019. We were unsatisfied with the preschool program that he…read morewas in so we looked around to see if there was a place that would offer ABA therapy and be full-time as his preschool was part-time and often didn't have class due to administrative days and what not which was really frustrating. There aren't that many ABA centers that provide full day services and when I visited some of them they looked so cold and clinical. When I visited Ally I got a better, more personalized feeling since it was more open and you would see kids playing. They have great communication and I can always speak to the BCBA when I need to and the teachers are great. Additionally, when most preschools/day care centers were closed early on and often stayed closed in the pandemic, they were only briefly closed and were able to go back to providing in-home services which was great since as we all know that the pandemic has had a negative impact on kids with ASD due to lack of available/in person services. They have also been taking precautions during the Pandemic which is great. Although my son got off to a rocky start due to the new environment and change in schedule (to be expected with a kid with ASD), with each day we saw improvement. Over the past two years he has been at the center, he has become a more social, active, talkative little boy. We were sad to leave this past fall because we had such a great experience, but he has been thriving in kindergarten due to the foundation that was built at Ally. All in all this is a great place and if you're looking for quality ABA center, Ally Behavior Centers is the way to go.

Wings To Fly Therapy Center has been an awesome experience for us. We've been working with Denise…read morethe OT for 2 years now and most recently Kate the SLP. I could not be more pleased with the attention to detail of the providers, feedback to me the parent after each visit, and the progress that my kids have made. Kate is working RPM in conjunction with a home program for one of my boys and we are amazed each week by what he knows and most importantly, that he can now have a way to show us. Denise maintains phenomenal instructional control and works specifics for fine motor improvement, spacial awareness, hand eye coordination etc. I also love that she will try new things to elicit a new response to similar stimuli. She's always thinking of new ways to achieve results. I find the therapists to be "real people", knowledgeable in their trade, professional, and loving towards kids. The atmosphere is another plus. It's a welcoming Center with a waiting room that would put other center's to shame. There are tables to work at your computer, things to keep your other kids occupied and there is also a huge play room with ball pit, trampoline and swings available. The owner knows the world well and lives it daily. That is why she makes every effort to make the experience a great one for not only the kids, yet the families and caregivers who are present also. It's clean, free parking and right off 28 and 66. For us, it's an A+. I am available to chat with anyone who wants more detail from a parent's perspective. If you ask the owner, she can pass on your contact details to me. I'm in there at least once per week!

I have worked for ABS for over a year now and it has been the most rewarding position and company I…read morehave held in the field of ABA over the course of my 5 years of experience! I am also in grad school so the flexibility of the practice owner, Meghan, has been extremely helpful to maintain not only client level of care, but RBT/BT burnout as well! Employee turnovers in this field occur very often but I have had the same coworkers since I started due to the culture of the practice. While maintaining all ethical boundaries, our clients, parents, coworkers, etc all feel like we are one big family working together to make progress and positive changes! - Marita Asedillo

Navigating the school system as a parent of a neurodivergent child can feel like an uphill battle…read moreagainst a framework that simply wasn't built to support or accommodate them. Working with Meghan made a world of difference. She has an exceptional ability to cut through the bureaucracy, advocate fiercely, and manage a complicated, unsupportive system with incredible patience and skill. Meghan didn't just understand the administrative hurdles, she knew exactly how to advocate for my child's specific needs, ensuring they weren't overlooked or pushed aside. Her guidance, expertise, and relentless support brought clarity and immense relief during a stressful process. If you are struggling to get proper accommodations or support from the school system, I cannot recommend Autism Behavioral Solutions and Meghan highly enough!

We have been seeing Dr. Emily Danon for over a year with our daughter who has severe ADHD and ODD…read more Emily has been pivotal in reaching us how to effectively parent and support our child, as well as help improve her self-confidence, life skills and coping with her disorders in a very positive, professional way. She has always gone out of her way to support us and our daughter, including facilitating sessions during vacations, summer camps, etc. Since beginning therapy here, our communication and relationship with our daughter has never been better. Emily genuinely cares for her patients and it shows. It's worth mentioning, Emily is one of my daughters favorite people. So it's safe to say it goes both ways. We painstakingly searched for months and months for a pediatric therapist and I couldn't be happier. I would recommend Emily to absolutely anyone.
