What ABA therapy looks like in Lochbuie

Lochbuie in Weld County is a town of about 8,142 people. 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.

Lochbuie 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.

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 Lochbuie

Census estimates count about 2,300 children under 18 in Lochbuie, including about 710 under age 5. The CDC estimates that about 1 in 31 children is autistic. Applied here, that is roughly 76 children in Lochbuie who may be on the spectrum — many of them not yet diagnosed.

For the 710 youngest children in Lochbuie, 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 Lochbuie, 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 Lochbuie

About 58% of children under 6 in Lochbuie 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.

Connectivity is strong — about 96% 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 Lochbuie

Lochbuie is served by Weld County school districts, including Greeley-Evans School District 6 (about 22,000 students across 35 schools), Weld County Reorganized School District No. Re-4 (about 8,200 students across 12 schools), and Weld County School District No. Re-5J (about 3,900 students across 7 schools). District lines don't always follow town lines, so check your address with the district if you're not sure.

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.
