What happens next?

After the intake packet is complete, we will begin the insurance verification process. We will have to wait for approval for treatment by the insurance company.

The timeline for the insurance company to approve treatment is out of our control and will depend solely upon your insurance carrier. We will check on the status of treatment authorization throughout the week. You will be notified as soon as we receive the approval.

After your insurance authorization is approved, one of our analysts will contact you to set up an appointment to begin your assessment.

What are the first few sessions of ABA therapy like?

Once therapy begins, the first 1-3 sessions will be called “pairing sessions.” Pairing sessions help establish rapport with the client and are essential in the effectiveness of the therapy process.

During a pairing session, the therapist will be associating him/herself with the client’s reinforcers. This way the client will start to learn that good things happen when his/her therapist is present. In turn, the client will be more willing to comply and cooperate with the therapist and therapy will be more effective.
