What ABA therapy looks like in Englewood

Englewood in Arapahoe County is home to about 33,774 people (roughly 5,117 people per square mile). It is the kind of place where weekday schedules are already full — school runs, work, practices — which is why we bring ABA therapy to your home rather than asking you to fit another drive into the day.

Englewood families don't have to drive to a clinic. Our ABA team comes to you — at home or at daycare — with BCBA coaching by video in between visits.

Here's what ABA usually looks like in practice: your BCBA observes your child at home and writes a plan, an ABA therapist runs the day-to-day sessions, and you get coaching so progress carries over between visits. How many hours a week? That depends on your child — our guide to how many hours of ABA explains how that gets decided.

Autism therapy for young children in Englewood

Census estimates count about 5,200 children under 18 in Englewood, including about 1,900 under age 5. The CDC estimates that about 1 in 31 children is autistic. Applied here, that is roughly 168 children in Englewood who may be on the spectrum — many of them not yet diagnosed.

Most parents notice something before anyone else does. If you're wondering about your little one, start with the M-CHAT screening explained, or read the signs at age 2. And if you already have a gut feeling, here's what to do next.

ABA isn't only for toddlers. For school-age kids in Englewood, goals often center on communication, managing big feelings, daily routines and getting along with friends. Wondering how ABA fits with other therapies? See ABA vs. speech therapy.

In-home, daycare or telehealth ABA in Englewood

About 71% of children under 6 in Englewood live in homes where every parent works. For a lot of families here, the hours that matter are daycare hours — so we offer daycare-based ABA support, where your child's ABA therapist works alongside the daycare routine, plus in-home sessions for evenings and the skills that belong at home.

Connectivity is strong — about 90% of homes have broadband. Most families here use telehealth for quick BCBA check-ins and coaching between in-person sessions.

ABA therapy, schools and IEPs in Englewood

Public-school students in Englewood are served by Englewood School District No. 1 (about 2,400 students across 9 schools) and Sheridan School District No. 2 (about 1,100 students across 5 schools).

Already working with your school team? Good — bring that IEP or evaluation to us. Your BCBA can shape home goals that support what's happening at school, so your child hears the same expectations in both places.
