ABA Therapy That Works for Real Families

What Does Therapy Actually Look Like?

Here’s what a typical full day looks like for your child at our Eau Claire center.

Morning Drop-Off (8:30 AM)

You’re greeted by name. Your child’s therapist is ready with a favorite toy, and your child actually wants to be here.

Lunch & Social Time (12:00 - 1:00)

Snack time becomes social time. Your child practices requesting food, sitting with peers, and communicating with support from therapists.

BCBA Support Throughout the Day

Your child’s BCBA observes, adjusts programs, and tracks progress so you see real, measurable growth.

Morning Session (9:00 - 12:00)

Learning happens through play. Building blocks, taking turns, asking for help, and fewer meltdowns because your child now has better ways to communicate.

Afternoon Play-Based Learning (1:00 - 4:00)

Therapy follows your child’s interests, outside play, art, games, or movement, while building motor skills, patience, and independence.

Pick-Up

(4:30 PM)

You receive a quick win from the day and detailed session notes, plus guidance you can use at home during real routines.
