ABA Therapy
in Palm Beach County
Nexo ABA Therapy provides in-home and school-based Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy for children and teens with autism across Palm Beach County. From Jupiter to Boca Raton, our BCBA-led team builds a plan around your child, your family’s routine and the places where your child learns every day.
Whether you just received an autism diagnosis or you’re looking for a new provider, we’ll walk you through every step, starting with a free consultation.
What Is ABA Therapy?
Applied Behavior Analysis is an evidence-based approach that helps children build communication, social and daily living skills while reducing behaviors that get in the way of learning. Therapists break big goals into small, achievable steps and use positive reinforcement to make new skills stick.
ABA is not one-size-fits-all. Every program starts with an assessment and is adjusted as your child grows.
How to Start ABA Therapy
in Palm Beach County
Getting started is simpler than most families expect. Here’s what the first weeks look like:
- Free consultation. Tell us about your child, your concerns and your goals. We’ll answer your questions and check your insurance benefits.
- Assessment with a BCBA. A Board Certified Behavior Analyst meets your child, observes them in a natural setting and completes a Functional Behavior Assessment (FBA) and skills assessment.
- Individualized treatment plan. Your BCBA writes measurable goals and a Behavior Intervention Plan (BIP), and reviews them with you before therapy begins.
- Therapy and ongoing progress reviews. Registered Behavior Technicians (RBTs) deliver sessions under BCBA supervision, and your BCBA tracks data and updates the plan as your child progresses.

Does Florida Medicaid cover ABA therapy?
Florida Medicaid covers behavior analysis services for eligible recipients under age 21 when they are medically necessary. Since February 1, 2025, these services are reimbursed through Statewide Medicaid Managed Care (SMMC) plans. Our team can help you understand your plan’s requirements.
Do I need an autism diagnosis to start ABA therapy?
Most insurance plans require a diagnosis and a referral or recommendation from a physician before approving ABA. If your child doesn’t have a diagnosis yet, talk to your pediatrician, or contact FAU CARD for free guidance. We’re happy to explain the next steps during your free consultation.
How many hours of ABA therapy will my child need?
It depends on your child’s needs and goals. After the assessment, your BCBA recommends a schedule, and we adjust it as your child makes progress.
Can you work with my child’s school?
Yes. We offer school-based support and can coordinate with teachers so the strategies your child learns stay consistent at home and in the classroom.

Yes. We work with English- and Spanish-speaking families.
