What ABA therapy looks like in Roxborough Park
Roxborough Park in Douglas County is a town of about 9,365 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.
Roxborough Park is about 17 miles from Lakewood, and our Lakewood team serves families here with in-home visits. Telehealth adds BCBA time between visits so nobody waits a week for an answer.
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 Roxborough Park
Census estimates count about 2,100 children under 18 in Roxborough Park, including about 370 under age 5. The CDC estimates that about 1 in 31 children is autistic. Applied here, that is roughly 67 children in Roxborough Park who may be on the spectrum — many of them not yet diagnosed.
Earlier is easier. If your toddler isn't pointing, answering to their name, or using words the way other kids their age do, it is worth a look now rather than later. Our guides walk through signs of autism at 18 months, at age 2 and at age 3, plus the M-CHAT screening many pediatricians use.
ABA isn't only for toddlers. For school-age kids in Roxborough Park, 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.
Home, daycare or telehealth: what fits Roxborough Park families

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 100% of homes have broadband. Most families here use telehealth for quick BCBA check-ins and coaching between in-person sessions.
