In-home ABA therapy in Juneau, AK
We fit around your life here
Accessing services in a city without road connections to the rest of the state takes planning. We work with Juneau families across Mendenhall Valley, Douglas Island, Lemon Creek, Auke Bay, and the Glacier Highway corridor, on a schedule built around what your family can manage.
We handle the insurance
Alaska Medicaid covers ABA for children under 21 through the federal EPSDT benefit. The state's fee-for-service system means there's no plan variation by region; coverage in Juneau is the same as anywhere in Alaska. We handle prior authorization with the Alaska Division of Health Care Services before your child's first session.
The skills that matter happen at home
Morning routines, transitions, communication, daily independence: these are the things that shape a family's day. That's where we do the work.
What ABA therapy in Juneau can look like
Your child gets through the morning routine without it falling apart. That’s independence.
They say what they need instead of shutting down. That’s communication.
They hold it together in a new situation, a new space, a new group of people. That’s resilience.
They find their way into something with another child and stay with it. That’s connection.
You reach the end of a hard week and everyone made it through. That’s progress.
ABA therapy services in Juneau, AK
In-home ABA therapy
Home is where your child's routines live. Building skills inside those routines is what makes them last beyond the session.
School-based ABA therapy
We coordinate with Juneau School District so therapy goals and classroom goals support each other. IEP season coming? Loop us in early.
Parent training
You're the constant in your child's life. Parent training makes the hours between sessions count toward progress.
Autism assessment and diagnosis
Diagnostic access in Southeast Alaska can be limited. We work with a partner offering virtual evaluations, and most families are seen within two to three weeks.
Community-based ABA
Juneau has a close-knit community. Community sessions build skills in the places that matter: the store, a friend's house, a school event.
Covered in Juneau

Commercial insurance
We work with Blue Cross Blue Shield of Alaska, Aetna, Cigna, UnitedHealthcare, Optum, TRICARE, and most major commercial plans. Give us your plan name and member ID and we’ll verify your coverage at no cost.
