What ABA therapy looks like in Denver 80236

Denver 80236 is home to about 17,207 people (roughly 5,377 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.

Our Sunbird ABA team in the Denver 80236 area is here serving you. Your child's ABA therapist comes to your home or daycare, and your BCBA stays in touch by video between visits — so help is here, not a long drive away.

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.
