Behavior Frontiers Autism Center - Riverside

Yes, most insurance providers require a formal autism diagnosis to approve ABA therapy. If you're still navigating the diagnostic process, we're happy to point you in the right direction and help however we can. In some select regions, we may also partner with a local diagnostic providers to support in this process. Contact us for more information.

We’ve made our intake process as simple and supportive as possible: 

1. Reach Out – Fill out the form or give us a call 
2. Benefits Verification – We confirm your insurance coverage 
3. Functional Behavioral Assessment – A BCBA meets with your child to understand their needs, creating a personalized therapy plan based on your child’s goals 
4. Insurance Approval – We submit the plan and handle the authorization process 
5. Start Services – Once approved, we schedule your first appointment 

The number of recommended therapy hours is based on your child’s individual needs, goals, and assessment results. Just like a doctor carefully determines the right amount of medication for you or your child to thrive, our clinical team designs a personalized plan that provides the right level of support for meaningful, lasting progress. For many young children, this often means a comprehensive program ranging from 25 to 40 hours per week—always tailored to what will benefit your child most. 

Your child’s day will include a balance of 1:1 therapy, play-based learning, social skill-building, interacting with peers, working on daily routines, all customized to their unique therapy plan. We aim to create a fun, engaging, and progress-focused environment.
