Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

We know you have questions. Here are answers to the ones we hear most from families.

What age groups do you serve? 🧒
We primarily serve children ages 2–16 with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and related developmental needs. Early intervention is especially impactful, and we welcome families across all stages.
Does my child need an autism diagnosis? 📄
For insurance-funded ABA therapy, yes — a formal ASD diagnosis is typically required. We can help guide families through this process if a diagnosis hasn't yet been obtained.
What is ABA therapy? 🧩
Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) is the gold-standard, evidence-based approach for supporting children with autism. It focuses on building communication, social, adaptive, and learning skills using proven behavioral techniques.
Do you accept Medicaid? 🏥
Yes! We are credentialing with Florida Medicaid and SMMC managed care plans including Sunshine Health, Molina, and Simply Healthcare. We are committed to serving Palm Beach County families regardless of insurance type.
How many hours of therapy will my child receive? ⏰
Hours are individualized based on your child's assessment and treatment plan. Many children receive 10–40 hours per week. Our BCBA will recommend the appropriate intensity after the initial evaluation.
Where is the clinic located? 📍
We are located in Boynton Beach, Florida, co-located within the Gentle Medicine Associates facility in Palm Beach County. Contact us for the full address and directions.
Are parents involved in therapy? 👨‍👩‍👧
Absolutely. Parent training is a cornerstone of our program. We believe the best outcomes happen when families are empowered to reinforce skills in everyday life at home and in the community.
When will you be open and taking clients? 📅
We are in the process of finalizing credentialing and opening operations. Join our waitlist now to secure priority access and receive updates on our official launch date.
