If you're new to this

A diagnosis is a lot. We make the next step the easy part.

Most families find us right after a diagnosis. There's a lot to take in. Insurance authorizations, IEPs, ABA, BCBAs, RBTs, the Autism Care Demonstration, the alphabet of it. Our team walks you through every piece in plain English. We run your insurance the same day you reach out so you know exactly what's covered. We handle the back-and-forth with insurance to advocate for the services your child qualifies for. You focus on your kid.

Why in-home

Why we come to you in Hilton Head Island

Hilton Head families have a unique situation: a small island with high demand for clinical services and limited local capacity. We hire BCBAs and RBTs across the Lowcountry and can build a team for Hilton Head families with a mix of in-home sessions and telehealth.

We come to you. Sessions in your house, on the island, scheduled around the realities of island life (the bridge, the tourist seasons, the schools).

Inside a session

What a session looks like

A typical session is two to four hours of structured, play-based teaching, one on one with your child. Goals are real-life.

Some families use a mix of in-home and telehealth, especially for BCBA supervision and parent training, which makes scheduling easier on a small island.
