ABA therapy is a scientifically validated approach that focuses on understanding and changing socially important behavior based on principles of learning and motivation. Willow Reach prioritizes assent based therapy and requires parent collaboration to ensure therapy is uniquely tailored toward the client’s needs.

ABA therapy is covered by most insurances for children with a diagnosis of ASD. Maryland has an autism insurance mandate which requires health insurance plans to cover ABA therapy for children diagnosed with ASD. Willow Reach currently offers insurance based services and private pay services.

A Board Certified Behavior Analyst will conduct an initial assessment. From there, the BCBA will provide direct oversight to a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) who will provide direct 1:1 services to each child. In addition, a BCBA will work individually with parents and caregivers to support generalization and maintenance of skills each week. 

You can get started with Willow Reach by completing our inquiry form. You can also contact your insurance company to verify coverage for ABA therapy. Most insurances require a diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) from a licensed clinician. 

A holistic approach is taking the entire child and family system into consideration and developing a plan that supports their physical, mental, emotional, and social well-being through a collaborative and individualized treatment plan.

Our program highlights the expertise of each stakeholder and focuses on collaboration and consistent communication to deliver effective treatment. Our team focuses on enhancing your child’s current strengths through assent based practices and compassionate care.
