Home Based ABA or Center Based ABA: Which Is Right For Me?

Whether you have no idea which option is right for you to start, or are wondering if you should switch things up, there are pros and cons for each option of home based ABA or center based ABA. Here are some things you should consider in figuring out which works best for you and your schedule.

Home Based ABA

With in-home ABA programs at Triangle ABA, your child works one-on-one with a behavior therapist for 15 or more hours each week. The biggest pro of this option is that by providing ABA in home, we are able to address behaviors in their natural environment. However, an adult from the client’s family must always be present at the home while the services are performed.

Center Based ABA

Centers offer a perfect setting for generalization, allowing patients to use acquired skills in a new way, at a new place. The Triangle ABA Clinic Based Program serves children in Raleigh diagnosed with Autism & other Developmental Disabilities. Our comprehensive team of therapists are always supervising, thus you do not have to stay at the center while your child is taken care of after you drop them off.

A Mix of Both

One important thing to keep in mind is that you really don’t have to limit yourself or your child to one option or the other. You can create a unique mix of the two that works best for you and your family. Especially as schedules change throughout the year, particuarly between summer time when school is out and the rest of the year when school is in, don’t hesitate to change things up as life changes with you. If you’re still not sure, reach out to the experts who have immense experience in configuring ABA schedules at Triangle ABA. We will help you feel settled and confident in your ABA scheduling decisions.
