Why therapy at a center works
Center-based ABA means your child’s therapy happens in a clinic built for it, rather than at home or school. Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) breaks skills into clear, learnable steps; the center gives those steps a consistent place to land, day after day.
It is the only setting we offer, on purpose. A dedicated space lets us control distractions when focus matters, create natural social moments when peers matter, and keep your child’s whole team (RBTs and the supervising BCBA) under one roof.
Sessions run 20 to 40 hours per week for most children, set by each child’s Individual Treatment Plan (ITP) and their EIDBI authorization. For children who need more than ABA, speech and occupational therapy are available on-site through our therapy partner, in the same building.
A structured, predictable environment
Dedicated therapy spaces designed for focused learning, with routines your child can count on every day.
A consistent, supervised team
The same Registered Behavior Technicians (RBTs) session after session, with a BCBA on site supervising every plan.
Peer interaction, built in
Being around other children creates natural chances to practice sharing, turn-taking, and play skills that one-on-one settings cannot replicate.
A bridge to the classroom
Center routines like circle time, transitions, and group activities mirror preschool and kindergarten, easing the step into school.
Center-based vs. in-home ABA
Searching for ABA near you, you will find both models. We chose to offer center-based care only, and the choice is intentional. Here is the honest comparison.
Center-based: Purpose-built therapy spaces where distractions can be controlled when focus matters
In-home: Familiar but variable; harder to control distractions and materials
Center-based: The supervising BCBA is on site, observing sessions and adjusting plans in the moment
In-home: Supervision happens by visit or video, with more lag between observation and adjustment
Center-based: Built into every day through structured group activities
In-home: Not available without separate arrangements
Center-based: Circle time, transitions, and group routines mirror the classroom
In-home: Fewer natural opportunities to rehearse school-style routines
In-home therapy is the right answer for some families, and providers across the metro offer it. We focused everything on doing one setting exceptionally well. Skills still travel home: parent and caregiver training is built into every program, and our early intervention approach is parent-coaching heavy by design.

Parking and arrival
Our clinic is in Suite 201 at 7100 Northland Cir N Suite 201. On your first visit, plan to arrive a few minutes early: a member of our team meets you and your child at the entrance, walks you in, and handles the handoff at your child's pace. No rushed drop-offs on day one.
After the first days, arrival and pickup settle into a quick, predictable routine, and children riding with our transportation partners are met the same way.
Not in Brooklyn Park? You can still come.
Center-based care should not be limited to families who live next door. We work with transportation partners so children from across the Twin Cities metro, including Hennepin, Ramsey, and Anoka counties, can attend our center consistently. Tell us where you live during intake and we will walk through the options together.
One clinic, a whole metro
Families come to us from Brooklyn Center, Maple Grove, Coon Rapids, Crystal, New Hope, Robbinsdale, Minneapolis, and beyond across the Twin Cities metro.
Covered for EIDBI families
EIDBI and Medical Assistance are welcome here. Check the plans we accept before your first call if you like, or let us verify for you.
Who center-based ABA is best for
Every program here is individualized, so "best for" really means "which children gain the most from this setting." Five patterns come up again and again.
Youngest learners usually start through our early intervention program, which runs in the same building with the same team.
Children ages 2 to 10
From toddlers starting early intervention to school-age children building independence.
Building communication and play
Children working on first words, requesting, turn-taking, and play skills benefit from many structured practice moments each day.
Families who need a consistent routine
A predictable daily rhythm in one place, with the same team, lowers stress for children and simplifies logistics for parents.
Practicing skills with peers
Group activities give children real chances to practice sharing and social skills that cannot be replicated one-on-one.
A school-readiness focus
Center routines mirror preschool and kindergarten structures, easing the transition into a classroom.
What a day at the center looks like
Every child’s schedule is set by their ITP, so no two days are identical. But the rhythm below is what most families can expect: predictable anchors, teaching woven into play, and a clear handoff at the end of the day.
Children attending 20 to 40 hours per week settle into this rhythm quickly. Predictability is not a side effect; it is part of the therapy.
Arrival
Welcome and warm-up
A familiar greeting routine helps your child settle in and transition into their day.
Morning
One-on-one teaching sessions
Focused work on ITP goals: communication, play, daily living skills. Teaching is woven into activities your child enjoys.
Midday
Snack, lunch, and life skills
Mealtimes double as practice for real-world skills: requesting, waiting, trying new foods, tidying up.
Afternoon
Group learning and play
Structured peer activities build social skills, with therapists guiding and supporting in the moment.
Pickup
Daily handoff to you
Your child’s team shares what they worked on and how it went, so home and clinic stay connected.
Questions about the center
Location, transportation, hours, and what your child’s day will hold.
Our clinic is at 7100 Northland Cir N Suite 201, Brooklyn Park, MN 55428, in the northwest Twin Cities metro. Families come to us from Brooklyn Park and surrounding communities across the metro.
We work with transportation partners who help families across the Twin Cities reach our Brooklyn Park center. During intake, our team reviews the options available for your family’s location and your child’s coverage.
The center is open Mon – Fri, 8:00 AM – 5:00 PM. Your child’s specific schedule within those hours is set by their Individual Treatment Plan (ITP).
Days follow a predictable rhythm: a welcome routine, one-on-one teaching sessions in the morning, meals and life-skills practice midday, group play in the afternoon, and a daily handoff with your child’s team at pickup. The exact structure follows your child’s ITP.
Children ages 2 to 10. Younger children often start with early intervention programming, while older children work on school readiness and independence. Each child’s program is built individually by their BCBA.
Often, yes. Medical Assistance includes non-emergency medical transportation to covered services for eligible members, and we work with transportation partners who serve families across the metro. Coverage details depend on your child's plan, so we review the options for your family during intake rather than guessing.
Parents are partners here, not visitors. Parent and caregiver training is a covered, scheduled part of every EIDBI program, and your child's BCBA will also arrange opportunities to see strategies in action. Talk with your child's team about what works best; unannounced drop-ins are coordinated to avoid disrupting children mid-session.
Comfortable clothes, any comfort item your child loves, diapers or pull-ups if your child uses them, and lunch or snacks if your child has specific dietary needs. Our intake team confirms the specifics with you before day one, so nothing is left to memory.
