We are Here to Help!

Finding the right provider to get the home-based applied behavior analysis (ABA) services your child needs is a challenge. You want only the very best treatment for your child, and so do we! For the last 19 years, Behavior Frontiers has been providing superior quality ABA service to clients and their families and we’re confident that our accurate implementation of scientifically proven ABA methods makes a positive difference in the lives of individuals with autism and other special needs – we’ve got the data to prove it!

Our professional and highly skilled staff is NOW available to conduct intake assessments, either in-person or through telehealth, with your family to begin the treatment process. Please contact us at 410.989.5485 for Baltimore, 240.292.8319 for Bethesda, and 202.794.7159 for Fairfax, VA to find out more about our services and to schedule an initial appointment.

Behavior Frontiers has enhanced our policies and procedures regarding the delivery of our ABA services, including, limiting staff in clients’ homes, adhering to CDC guidelines for safety and social distancing requirements for center-based services, and offering telehealth services. We also require employees and clients to cancel sessions if they exhibit any symptoms of COVID-19, as well as provide detailed protocols for clients and employees who have tested positive for COVID-19. We believe that these safety procedures have helped to reduce the risks of exposure in providing ABA services.
