ABA therapy built for North Bergen families
North Bergen parents juggle busy schedules: school drop-offs at Lincoln or McKinley Elementary, afternoons at North Hudson Park, or weekend errands along John F. Kennedy Boulevard. In-home ABA therapy fits seamlessly into these routines. Our therapist works around your family's calendar - before or after school, during naps, or in the evenings - so therapy never feels like an extra burden.
We coordinate closely with your child's school team, including the North Bergen School District child study team. If your child receives services through an IEP or is being evaluated for one, we can align our goals with classroom targets and share progress reports. For toddlers, we connect with Hudson County Early Intervention to ensure a smooth transition from birth-to-three services into preschool supports.
Life in Hudson County means access to excellent pediatric resources. We frequently partner with local providers such as Hackensack Meridian Health Palisades Medical Center in North Bergen, as well as developmental pediatricians and neurologists in nearby Jersey City. Our BCBAs attend team meetings and collaborate with these professionals to ensure comprehensive care.
