What ABA therapy looks like in Greeley

Greeley in Weld County is a big, busy place: about 109,421 people on 50 square miles, roughly 2,184 people per square mile. It is also the county seat. With that many families close together, in-home ABA is practical here — your child's ABA therapist comes to your door instead of adding a commute to your week.

Our Sunbird ABA team in the Greeley 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.

ABA here works the same way it does everywhere we serve: a BCBA-led plan written for your child, one-on-one sessions with an ABA therapist, and regular coaching for you. New to all of this? Start with what ABA therapy actually is, then what to expect at the first session.

Autism therapy for young children in Greeley

Census estimates count about 27,000 children under 18 in Greeley, including about 7,600 under age 5. The CDC estimates that about 1 in 31 children is autistic. Applied here, that is roughly 860 children in Greeley who may be on the spectrum — many of them not yet diagnosed.

For the 7,600 youngest children in Greeley, 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.

ABA isn't only for toddlers. For school-age kids in Greeley, 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 Greeley

About 62% of children under 6 in Greeley have every parent in the workforce, so families here are split: some want sessions during daycare, others at home with a parent close by. We do both — in-home ABA and daycare-based support — and many families mix them. Our guide to home vs. daycare sessions explains the trade-offs.

About 90% of households in Greeley have broadband — most, but not all. If video works at your house, telehealth adds BCBA time between visits. If it doesn't, tell us; we'll plan around your connection instead of the other way around.

ABA therapy, schools and IEPs in Greeley

Most public-school students in Greeley attend Greeley-Evans School District 6 (about 22,000 students across 35 schools).

School and ABA work best as partners. If your child has an IEP or evaluation from the district, send it along with your intake — it helps your BCBA write goals that back up the school plan instead of competing with it.

Paying for ABA therapy in Greeley

How to start ABA therapy in Greeley, step by step

What happens after you call? Five steps, no surprises — and the getting-started page has the long version.

  1. Call or send the short form — include your ZIP code (80543, 80550, 80631, 80634 are in Greeley). An intake advocate calls you back, usually the same business day.
  2. We check your insurance — free. One photo of your card is all we need to confirm your ABA benefits and tell you what you'd owe.
  3. No diagnosis yet? We help you book an evaluation first. Already have one? See what to do after a diagnosis.
  4. A BCBA visit at your home in Greeley. A BCBA from the team that serves Greeley comes to observe, ask questions, and write a plan with you — not for you.
  5. Sessions begin. An ABA therapist starts regular one-on-one sessions at home or daycare, with parent training built in. Here's how to prepare for the first one.
