  • Vetted, BCBA-led providers

We are not a clinic or provider-we are a free referral service that works with local, qualified ABA agencies. Our goal is to help you find the right therapist for your child, whether through in-home, center-based, or telehealth services, and to explain how insurance and California's Medicaid program (Medi-Cal) can cover the costs.

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

Families in Sunnyvale have several options for ABA therapy. In-home sessions allow a therapist to work with your child in a familiar environment, focusing on daily routines and family goals. Center-based therapy provides a structured setting with peer interaction, often with additional resources like social skills groups. For families who prefer flexibility, telehealth ABA offers remote sessions with a BCBA, making it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules.

Santa Clara County is home to many experienced ABA providers who serve Sunnyvale. Whether your child is newly diagnosed or needs continued support, our free matching service can connect you with providers that offer the setting and approach best suited to your family. We consider your insurance, location, and therapy preferences to find a good fit.

ABA insurance & Medicaid coverage in California

California law (SB 946) requires many private health insurance plans to cover ABA therapy for autism. This means that if you have a plan regulated by the state, ABA is typically a covered benefit. Additionally, California's Medicaid program, known as Medi-Cal, covers ABA therapy for eligible children under the age of 21. The exact coverage details depend on your specific plan and diagnosis.

Our free matching service helps you navigate insurance and Medi-Cal benefits. We work with providers who accept a wide range of plans, including Anthem Blue Cross, Kaiser Permanente, UnitedHealthcare, and many Medi-Cal managed care plans. When you contact us, we will ask about your insurance so we can match you with in-network providers, reducing your out-of-pocket costs.
