What ABA therapy looks like in Castle Pines Village
Castle Pines Village in Douglas County is a town of about 4,441 people. It is an unincorporated community — there is no city hall, but neighbors know it by name, and so do we. Families here often drive a long way for pediatric specialists. In-home ABA flips that: the therapist does the driving, and sessions happen where your child is most comfortable.
The nearest Sunbird team is in Aurora, about 21 miles away. Our Aurora team travels to homes in Castle Pines Village, and video check-ins with your BCBA fill the days in between.
A typical plan starts with a BCBA assessment at home, then regular one-on-one sessions with an ABA therapist — a trained behavior technician — working from goals your BCBA wrote for your child. You are part of it, too: parent training is built in, because the skills have to work at dinner time, not just during a session. Curious who does what? See who is on your child's team.
Autism and young children in Castle Pines Village
Castle Pines Village is home to about 780 kids under 18 — about 150 of them younger than 5 — according to the Census Bureau's latest five-year estimates.

For the 150 youngest children in Castle Pines Village, timing matters. Plain-English checklists: signs at 18 months, signs at age 3. No diagnosis yet? That's fine — we'll help you get one.
School-age kids benefit too — ABA can target the things that make the school day and evenings hard: transitions, communication, self-care, and handling frustration. Read how ABA and speech therapy work together, and our honest take on whether ABA is harmful.
