We know where you are right now
"Gaithersburg is a big city. I assumed finding ABA therapy would be easy."
Population size doesn't always translate to provider availability. Demand for ABA services in Montgomery County consistently outpaces supply. Epic Minds built a model around starting families quickly, not making them wait.
"My child is getting older and I feel like time is slipping away."
We hear this from parents of children at every age and stage. The good news is that ABA therapy is effective for children from early childhood through adolescence. Starting now, whatever now looks like, is the right move.
"I work full time and I can't take time off for therapy appointments."
Our RBTs come to your home and work on a schedule that fits your family. We build session times around your availability, not the other way around.
What changes when ABA therapy works
Communication
At Rio Washingtonian Center, your child asks for what they want at the restaurant. To the server, not just to you. You're sitting there watching them order.
Independence
Your child manages their own morning routine for a full week straight. Every day, without reminders. You notice it on day three and don't say anything because you don't want to jinx it.
Connection
Seneca Creek State Park on a weekend, and your child invites a sibling to go explore with them. The two of them walk ahead of you. You hang back and let them.
Progress
Gaithersburg school meeting and the special ed coordinator is smiling when she sits down. Your child crossed a goal off the IEP this quarter.
ABA therapy services in Gaithersburg, MD
In-home ABA therapy
Our RBTs come to your Gaithersburg home and work one-on-one with your child using a BCBA-designed plan. Sessions focus on communication, behavior, daily living skills, and the goals your family has identified. Every session is documented and data-driven.
School-based ABA therapy
We coordinate with Montgomery County Public Schools to bring ABA support into your child's classroom. Our team communicates with teachers and IEP coordinators so therapy goals transfer into the school day.
Parent training
We give you the ABA strategies your child's RBT uses in sessions so you can support progress throughout the day. Routines that used to be battles often become much more manageable with just a few consistent tools.
Community-based therapy
We practice skills in community settings your family uses, including Bohrer Park, local shopping areas, and everyday spots around Gaithersburg, so your child builds real-world confidence alongside in-home skills.
Autism assessment and diagnosis
Through our partnership with As You Are, Gaithersburg families can access virtual autism assessments typically completed in two to three weeks. If your child doesn't have a diagnosis yet, we can help you get one quickly.

What Gaithersburg families are saying
Real families. Real progress.
"We had been on three waiting lists for over a year. Epic Minds had us scheduled within two weeks. Our son started communicating in ways we honestly didn't expect for months."
"What I appreciate most is how consistent everything has been. The same RBT shows up every time, and I can see the difference in how comfortable my daughter is. The parent training has helped me so much too."
"Getting a diagnosis felt impossible until we heard about As You Are through Epic Minds. Within three weeks we had answers and a plan. I wish we'd found them sooner."
