BY YOUR SIDE – Autism Therapy Services in St. Charles, IL, has been dedicated to meeting the needs of individuals/families on the autism spectrum since 2009. We understand that autism is a complex disorder, and effective treatment requires a comprehensive approach specifically designed to meet the needs of the individual, as well as the family.
Our multidisciplinary program includes ABA, occupational, and speech-language therapies, along with family services. Our dedicated team has expertise in the four hallmark characteristics of autism: communication, social interactions, maladaptive behaviors, and sensory. We also offer our comprehensive approach in a variety of settings – in-center, in-home, and in the community.
With us, each child begins their journey with a comprehensive evaluation to determine the most appropriate combination of services – including ABA, speech, occupational, and feeding therapy. This initial assessment is the foundation for building a customized care plan that meets the child’s developmental level, sensory profile, and communication goals.
Whether your child participates in a structured ABA therapy session, works on communication through speech therapy, or improves motor skills through occupational therapy for autism in St. Charles, every experience is crafted with the child’s strengths and interests in mind.
Our ABA therapist team uses a variety of proven ABA therapy techniques – such as discrete trial training, positive reinforcement, and functional play strategies – to support growth in emotional regulation, social interaction, and daily routines.
Family involvement is a central part of every ABA therapy program. We regularly coach parents to use ABA techniques at home, helping to reinforce learning between sessions and empowering families to manage challenging behavior effectively. This collaboration strengthens consistency and builds confidence for both the child and their caregivers.
The goal of our ABA therapy services is to help every child with autism spectrum disorder build life-changing skills – whether through a single ABA technique or a blend of services. From your first visit to each milestone your child achieves, we walk with you at every step of the journey.
Our flexible model includes a range of settings so that families can receive services in the environment that suits them best. For those interested in center-based autism therapy, our St. Charles location includes sensory-friendly environments like Club Chill and the indoor Playground – spaces intentionally designed for hands-on learning and peer interaction for children with autism.
We also offer in-home ABA therapy, allowing families in St. Charles and surrounding areas to practice skills in the comfort of their own space. These sessions target transitions, daily living skills, and routines unique to each household.
For generalization and real-world application, community sessions bring therapy into everyday settings – such as navigating a grocery store or practicing language at a local library. This multi-setting approach helps make each skill more relevant, consistently practiced, and transferable across environments.
