ABA IS OUR SPECIALTY. COLLABORATION MAKES IT STRONGER.

At Ahoy ABA, Applied Behavior Analysis is at the center of your child’s program. We also recognize that a child’s development doesn’t happen within one discipline alone. With parent consent, our ABA team can collaborate with your child’s Speech-Language Pathologist, Occupational Therapist, school team, physicians, and other providers to promote consistency across environments.
