Expert ABA Therapy in Virginia

In-Home ABA Support, Delivered with Care and Understanding

Each child on the autism spectrum has unique strengths, challenges, and learning needs. That’s why Heartlinks’ ABA therapy in Baltimore begins with a comprehensive assessment and a treatment plan tailored to your child’s specific needs, goals, and strengths.

Our experienced team works in tandem with your family to understand your child’s daily routines, communication styles, and developmental priorities. From there, we build individualized goals and a structured ABA treatment plan designed to build real-life skills, foster independence, and support positive behavior  all in the comfort of your own home or day care.

Why Choose Heartlinks ABA in Virginia

Our programs are developed and overseen by a licensed BCBA therapist

and carried out through regular, structured sessions in your home. Because therapy happens where your child already lives, learns, and plays, skills built in session transfer more naturally into everyday routines like mealtimes, bedtime, playtime, and beyond.

  • Individualized treatment plans developed and supervised by a licensed BCBA
  • In-home sessions that reduce travel time and center care around your family’s schedule
  • Coverage accepted through Virginia Medicaid and most major commercial insurance plans
  • An intake team that walks you through every step, from first call to first session
  • ABA support available inside partnering daycare settings, so your child can get services without missing time with peers

Helping Children Build Real-Life Skills at Home

Our Board Certified Behavior Analysts design every program around research-backed ABA techniques, then adapt them to fit your family’s home and routine. Sessions focus on the skills that matter most day to day: communication, social interaction, self-care, and reducing behaviors that get in the way of learning.

Because our therapists work directly in your home, they see firsthand what helps and what doesn’t, and can adjust the plan in real time rather than waiting to hear about it secondhand. That responsiveness is part of what makes in-home ABA therapy so effective for families across Virginia.

ABA Therapy in Daycare Settings

If your child attends daycare, Heartlinks can bring ABA services directly into that setting so your child doesn’t have to choose between therapy and time with friends. Heartlinks isn’t the daycare provider, we partner with your child’s existing daycare to deliver ABA sessions on-site, and services are billed through insurance just like any other visit.

Getting started is easy. Call us at (571) 655-6160, or fill out our online contact form. From there, we’ll walk you through eligibility, insurance verification, and scheduling.
