Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) is a therapy that uses evidence-based techniques to help children build communication, social, and daily living skills while reducing challenging behaviors. We are not a clinic - we are a free referral service that matches you with providers who fit your family's needs and schedule.

In-home, center-based & telehealth ABA in Albuquerque

Families in Albuquerque and across Bernalillo County can choose from several ABA delivery models. In-home therapy allows your child to learn in a familiar environment, while center-based programs offer structured settings with peers and specialized equipment. Telehealth options are also available for parent coaching or direct sessions when appropriate.

Your free matching specialist will ask about your preferences, your child's age and needs, and your location within Albuquerque - from the North Valley to the South Valley - to recommend providers who offer the right setting. Most providers serve families throughout Bernalillo County and can travel to nearby communities.

ABA insurance & Medicaid coverage in New Mexico

New Mexico's Medicaid program, Centennial Care, covers ABA therapy for eligible children under age 21 when prescribed by a doctor. Many private insurance plans in New Mexico also include ABA benefits, especially after the state's autism insurance mandate (House Bill 347, 2015) which requires many large group plans to cover autism-related services up to age 21.

Our team will verify your insurance coverage at no cost and help you understand your benefits. We work with families who have private insurance, Medicaid, or who are self-pay. If you have Centennial Care or a plan through the New Mexico Health Insurance Exchange, you may qualify for ABA services with little to no out-of-pocket cost.
