Maryland Medicaid Accepted — 100% Free ABA Therapy
At A Gem of Joy ABA, we understand that financial concerns should never be a barrier to receiving quality care. Our programs are fully covered by Maryland Medicaid, meaning there is no cost to families for in-home and community-based Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy. We handle all the paperwork and coordination with insurance providers so you can focus on what matters most: your child’s growth and development.
Your Child’s Journey to Success, In the Comfort of Home
Our commitment to every family we serve starts with a free consultation where our experienced therapists meet with parents to understand each unique situation. This personalized approach ensures that our ABA therapy programs are tailored specifically to address your child’s needs and goals.
Step 1: Free Consultation
During the initial consultation, one of our Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs) will conduct a thorough assessment to identify specific areas where support is needed. This includes understanding your child’s strengths as well as challenges, which helps us design an effective and individualized plan.
Step 2: Personalized Plan
Following the consultation, we develop a comprehensive ABA therapy program that targets key developmental milestones such as communication skills, social interaction, daily living activities, and independence. We work closely with families to set realistic goals and outline strategies for achieving them.
Step 3: Family Empowerment
Empowering parents is at the heart of our approach. Throughout the process, we provide ongoing training and support so that you feel equipped to continue the progress made during therapy sessions even when they are not in session. We believe that by working together as a team, lasting change can be achieved.
