Early Intervention Program in North Carolina

Specialized early intervention ABA program for toddlers and preschool-aged children with autism. The earlier we start, the better the outcomes.

Early Intervention Program

Research consistently shows: the earlier ABA therapy begins, the better the long-term outcomes. Our early intervention program is specifically designed for toddlers and preschool-aged children, using play-based approaches that feel natural and engaging.

Why Early Matters

During the first five years of life, the brain is developing at its fastest rate. Early intervention takes advantage of this critical window of neuroplasticity, building foundational skills in communication, social interaction, and daily living.

Our Approach

We use naturalistic, play-based teaching methods that follow your child’s interests and motivation. Therapy happens through games, activities, and daily routines — making learning feel like fun, not work.

Key Focus Areas

  • Communication — From first words to full sentences
  • Social skills — Eye contact, joint attention, playing with peers
  • Adaptive skills — Feeding, dressing, toileting
  • Motor skills — Fine and gross motor development
  • Pre-academic skills — Colors, shapes, letters, numbers
