At ACES San Bruno, we believe it is important to recognize when your child might need speech therapy. Signs that your child may need speech therapy could include difficulty with social communication, responding to questions, starting and ending conversations, changing conversation topics, using gestures, understanding other people’s body language, and more. Early intervention is key when it comes to language development, and speech therapy is an important part of this process. Our complete guide to speech therapy can help you recognize the signs that your child needs speech therapy and provide you with the information and resources you need.

At ACES San Bruno, we understand that deciding whether or not to pursue ABA therapy for your child is a major decision. Applied behavior analysis (ABA) can help improve communication skills, introduce productive habits, and reduce harmful behaviors. However, it is important to be aware of providers who look to “cure” autism, as this is not the goal of ABA therapy. Rather, the goal is to help children learn all that they can so they can reach their full potential while embracing their unique, individual personality traits. To help you make the best decision for your family, we have created a comprehensive guide to starting and ending ABA therapy.

At ACES in San Bruno, the cost of ABA therapy varies depending on your insurance coverage and provider. Autism is the only diagnosis for which insurance typically covers ABA therapy, as its benefits have been thoroughly researched. If you have an autism diagnosis, it’s important to check with your insurance plan to make sure ABA therapy is covered and that the provider you are seeking care at is in-network. To help you navigate the ABA therapy cost, we’ve created a comprehensive guide that outlines everything you need to know.
