Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) is a therapy that helps build communication, social, and daily living skills. We don't provide therapy ourselves - instead, we listen to your needs, check insurance or Medicaid coverage, and connect you with quality providers near you. It's always free to use.

In-home, center-based & telehealth ABA in Chelsea

Chelsea families can choose from several ABA settings. Many providers offer in-home therapy right in your Chelsea apartment or brownstone, making it easier to build routines in your child's natural environment. Center-based care is also available in Manhattan, with dedicated spaces equipped with sensory and learning materials.

Telehealth ABA is another option, allowing your BCBA to work with you and your child remotely. Whether you live near the High Line or by Madison Square Park, your free match can include flexible scheduling. All providers serve New York County and are licensed by New York State.

ABA insurance & Medicaid coverage in New York

New York's Medicaid program (NY Medicaid) and private insurers are required to cover medically necessary ABA therapy for autism. The New York State Autism Insurance Mandate (part of Insurance Law) ensures plans regulated by the state cover ABA. That means families in Chelsea can often access therapy with low or no out-of-pocket costs.

If you have NY Medicaid, ABA is a covered benefit. Our team can verify your specific plan - including government or employer-sponsored insurance - and match you with providers who accept it. No cost to you, just a connection to care.
