Our Services
In Clinic ABA Therapy
Our in-clinic ABA therapy provides a fun, structured, and supportive environment where children can learn and grow through individualized, play-based activities. Our trained staff work one-on-one with each child to develop important skills, including communication, social interactions, emotional regulation, daily living skills, and independence.
Through engaging activities, peer interactions, and positive reinforcement, we help children build meaningful skills while reducing behaviors that interfere with learning and everyday life. Our goal is to create a positive learning environment where every child can make progress at their own pace.
Social Skills
At Sandstone, our Social Skills Groups help children build meaningful social connections and develop the skills needed to interact successfully with others.
Each group focuses on a specific social skill through engaging lessons, hands-on activities, and opportunities to practice with peers. Our goal is to create a fun, supportive environment where children can build confidence, develop friendships, and learn skills they can use in everyday life.
Clinical ABA (Teens/Adults)
Clinical ABA is where the individual meets with a BCBA one-on-one to receive support on their individual goals. This type of therapy uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and traditional Applied Behavior Analysis techniques to help individuals with internal struggles (depression, anxiety, stress, etc.). Most ACT sessions typically involve meeting with a Board Certified Behavior Analyst and discussing the internal conflicts a client is experiencing and helping them disconnect or “defuse” themselves from the thoughts that are causing them emotional distress. Where ACT Behavior Support differs from traditional talk therapy is in its focus on “committed action.”
Parent Training
Our in-person parent training provides families with hands-on guidance and practical ABA strategies to support their child’s growth and development. Parents work directly with a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) to learn skills such as improving communication, managing challenging behaviors, building independence, and encouraging positive interactions.
Training can be completed individually with a BCBA or alongside your child’s ABA therapy sessions, allowing parents to observe strategies, practice skills, and receive real-time feedback.
Our goal is to help parents feel confident using effective strategies in everyday situations and support their child’s progress beyond therapy sessions.
In Home ABA Therapy
By providing services where everyday challenges naturally occur, our team can better understand why behaviors are happening and develop practical solutions that work for your child and family.
Whether your child struggles with daily routines, communication, emotional regulation, transitions, or challenging behaviors, our team works directly with your family to identify what may be contributing to these difficulties and teach skills to help overcome them.

- Inability to read social cues
- Rigid in routine or activities
- Sensitivity to loud noises and textures
- Social withdrawal

Evaluation & Diagnosis:
An autism diagnostic evaluation is a comprehensive assessment that looks at various domains of development including speech and language, cognition, social skills, play skills, and more. These evaluations give key information regarding development, emotional functioning, strengths, and areas for growth.
Finding the right healthcare provider for an autism evaluation can feel overwhelming. Every insurance plan has different requirements regarding who can provide a diagnosis and what documentation is needed for ABA therapy to be approved.
We’re here to help make the process easier! Our front office team has researched providers, insurance requirements, specialties, and waitlists to help families find the right fit.
Whether you’re looking to begin ABA therapy or simply want an evaluation and diagnosis, give us a call! Our team can help connect you with a healthcare provider who meets your family’s needs and insurance requirements.
