ABA therapy
shouldn’t end
at age six.
Growing up brings new possibilities. It shouldn’t mean fewer options for care. We help children and teens build meaningful skills for the life ahead, with a team that sees the person first.
No provider waitlist. A real team ready to listen.
Start-of-care timing depends on assessment, care coordination, and insurance authorization.

Why we built Circles
Not an afterthought.
Our entire mission.
Early intervention matters.
So does everything that comes after.
School gets more complicated. Friendships change. Independence starts to mean something new. Support should grow with your child, not disappear after the early-intervention years.
Circles ABA was created specifically for children and adolescents ages 6–18. Our care is built around their interests, their everyday lives, and the goals that matter to them and their families.
The name Circles reflects the people who make that possible: family, clinicians, schools, and the wider community. Your child stays at the center.
Get to know our approachSupport in familiar places
Care built around
real life.
One-to-one support, meaningful goals, and skills to practice where daily life actually happens.
In-school therapy
With the right approvals, we collaborate with school teams to support participation, peer interactions, communication, and skills that help your child navigate the school day.
Connected care, beyond the front door.Weekly parent training
Parents and caregivers are active partners. Required weekly training helps you understand the plan, practice strategies, and share what is working between sessions.
Your insight belongs in the plan.In-school services depend on clinical need, school permission, and insurer authorization. Not every plan covers therapy in a school setting.
What meaningful progress can look like
A voice that is heard.
Expressing needs, making choices, asking for help, and finding ways to communicate that work for your child.
More ownership of the everyday.
Practicing daily routines and self-care skills in manageable steps, with support matched to your child’s strengths and needs.
Safer ways to meet everyday challenges.
Understanding what contributes to behaviors that affect safety, learning, or daily life, and building safer ways to communicate needs, ask for help, and navigate difficult situations. Goals focus on your child’s well-being and meaningful participation.
Room to connect, on their terms.
Building skills for shared activities, peer interactions, and relationships while respecting your child’s preferences.
Support for the moments in between.
Working through transitions, new situations, and daily expectations with practical strategies and consistent family involvement.
These are examples, not promised outcomes. Goals and treatment recommendations are individualized after assessment.
The standard we hold ourselves to
Quality first.
Always.
Experience matters. So does how we show up. Our clinical model puts thoughtful, individualized care ahead of shortcuts.
“Always do the right thing,
no matter what.”
01
Experienced from the start.
Every Registered Behavior Technician we hire has at least two years of field experience. We do not use a hire-and-certify model for inexperienced technicians.
02
A participant, not just a patient.
Our assent-based approach pays attention to your child’s willingness to participate. Their voice, comfort, and individual preferences belong in the care process.
03
Progress with purpose.
We review individualized data and standardized tools such as Vineland to understand progress and inform the plan. The focus stays on meaningful skills, not one-size-fits-all targets.
04
A family that stays informed.
Weekly parent training and frequent communication keep caregivers connected to the clinical team. You should understand what we are working on and why.

A little clarity
Questions are
a good place
to start.
Choosing care is a personal decision. We are here to help you understand the options.
Ask us your questionWho does Circles ABA serve?
We serve children and adolescents ages 6–18 who have an autism diagnosis. Our model is built specifically around the needs of school-aged children and teens, with an individualized clinical assessment guiding care.
Is there really no waitlist?
Circles operates without a provider waitlist and plans staffing ahead. Your actual start date can still depend on completing intake, clinical assessment, insurance authorization, and care coordination. We will explain the next steps for your family rather than promise a start date we cannot control.
Where does therapy take place?
We provide in-home and in-school ABA in Broward County, Palm Beach County, and Greater Orlando. The setting depends on your child’s needs and the appropriate approvals. In-school care requires school permission and applicable insurer authorization.
Will my insurance cover services?
Coverage depends on your individual plan. Please call us to discuss your insurance. Our team can check your specific benefits and explain potential costs. An insurer’s name alone does not confirm coverage. We do not accept Medicaid or other public insurance.
How involved do parents need to be?
Weekly parent training is a required part of our model. We also maintain frequent communication so caregivers understand the goals, can share observations, and have strategies to practice between therapy sessions.
How do you measure progress?
We review data tied to your child’s individual goals and use standardized tools such as Vineland to help understand functioning and progress. Findings help the clinical team review and adjust the plan with your family.
What should I have ready to get started?
Our intake team will need your child’s autism diagnosis, insurance card, and basic family information. Start by calling or requesting a callback. Do not send medical records, insurance ID numbers, dates of birth, or other sensitive details through this public website form.
