What ABA therapy looks like in Uniontown
Uniontown in Bourbon County is a very small community — about 492 people. No town is too small for in-home ABA. We plan visits and telehealth around where you actually live, and we tell you plainly what that looks like for your address.
Our team works with families in Uniontown the same way we do everywhere: sessions at your home or your child's daycare, a BCBA who knows your child, and telehealth check-ins 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 therapy for young children in Uniontown
Uniontown is home to about 250 kids under 18 — about 90 of them younger than 5 — according to the Census Bureau's latest five-year estimates. The CDC estimates that about 1 in 31 children is autistic. Applied here, that is roughly 8 children in Uniontown 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.
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.
In-home, daycare or telehealth ABA in Uniontown
About 65% of children under 6 across Bourbon County 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. (Uniontown is small enough that the county-wide figure is the reliable one.)
About 87% of households across Bourbon County 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 Uniontown
