ABA therapy built for Toms River families
Toms River, the largest municipality in Ocean County, is a vibrant community where families balance school, extracurriculars, and local routines. Liftoff ABA brings therapy directly into your home, fitting seamlessly around your child's schedule-whether that's after school at Toms River Intermediate School or during breaks from Ocean County's many parks and recreation programs. Our BCBA-designed plans work with your family's daily life, reducing travel stress and allowing skills to generalize naturally in the home environment.
We coordinate closely with the Toms River Regional Schools Child Study Team to align ABA goals with your child's IEP or 504 plan, ensuring consistency between home and school. For younger children, we can collaborate with Ocean County's early intervention services through NJEIS. Our therapists also help families navigate local resources like the Ocean County Special Services School District, which offers specialized programs for children with autism, ensuring a comprehensive support network.
