We have openings in both our Burton and Brighton locations for ABA therapy in the morning. Morning sessions begin at 8:30am and can end at 11:30am or 12:30pm, depending on the family's needs.

Our best advertising is word of mouth, so please share with your friends and family who might benefit from our services! Families can call 810-344-8082 to arrange a tour of either location, and we can start a new family just as soon as the insurance can process the request.

Emma likes baking, traveling and anything creative. She enjoys painting, drawing and interior design.

For Halloween, we will be having our parties at the centers on Friday, October 28. We realize that Halloween is the following Monday, but Friday is definitely a better day to have a party and lots of silly activities!

For the party, you may send a costume with your child if you'd like, but it is not required.

Parents do NOT need to send anything else - we will set up trick or treating stations with edible and non-edible treats and the kids will trick or treat and participate in other fun activities.

If your child does not enjoy wearing a costume, but you'd like him to learn to tolerate one, please send your costume in anytime, and we will work with him on getting used to the costume and wearing it. If you need help choosing a sensory friendly costume, ask your BCBA for ideas - we are full of creative ways to make things work!

See below for info on the U of M Flint Inclusive Halloween activity on 10/28 too!

We are sharing this info on behalf of a group of researchers who reached out to us. Please feel free to complete the study or share it with anyone who would be interested.

Autism Language Use Study

Are you autistic, or a parent/caregiver of a person on the autism spectrum, or a professional who works with autistic people? We want to hear from you!

Our team of autistic and neurodivergent researchers is recruiting for a short, online survey about words and phrases used when talking about autism. We would like to learn more about the preferences of autistic people, their parents/caregivers, and professionals who work with people on the autism spectrum to inform recommendations for supportive language that center autistic voices. The survey is anonymous and will take about 10 - 20 minutes to complete. This research is approved by the IRB at Emory University. To participate, please click the link:
