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

ABA therapy in Boston is available in a variety of settings to meet your family's needs. Many providers offer in-home therapy in neighborhoods from Beacon Hill to Dorchester, allowing your child to learn in a familiar environment. Center-based programs are also common across Boston and Suffolk County, providing structured social opportunities with peers. Telehealth ABA is another option, letting your child work with a BCBA remotely - ideal for busy schedules or when in-person visits aren't possible.

Whether you need full-day sessions or after-school support, our matching service will help you find a provider in Boston that suits your child's age, diagnosis, and goals. All providers we work with are licensed, BCBA-led, and experienced in delivering individualized ABA programs.

ABA insurance & Medicaid coverage in Massachusetts

Massachusetts has strong insurance protections for autism therapy. Private health plans regulated by the state are required to cover ABA therapy for children diagnosed with autism, thanks to a law passed in 2010. This means most families with commercial insurance can access ABA with coverage for assessment, treatment, and parent training. Many providers also accept MassHealth, the state's Medicaid program, which covers ABA for eligible children under 21.

Our free matching service can help you find providers in Boston who accept your specific insurance plan, including MassHealth. We'll verify coverage details with the provider before you commit, so there are no surprises. Simply tell us your insurance information, and we'll match you with a BCBA-led provider who can work within your plan.
