Our Montgomery
Therapy Center
Early Autism Services Montgomery therapy center is located at 8149 Old Federal Road Montgomery, AL 36117.
We offer ABA Therapy for children between the ages of 18 months – 12 years old.
Center-based therapy is typically recommended for children who succeed in a more structured setting. This is because the environment can be controlled to better address maladaptive behaviors or skill deficits. This can include children who are easily distracted or who have behaviors that require a more intensive/structured program. Sessions in the clinic do allow for goals to be targeted with peers. This allows clients to build social skills with their peers in a structured setting.
Our Approach in ABA Therapy
