Yes, we do have a waitlist, however, it is not nearly as long as other providers in the area. Most families wait no longer than 6 months for after school with day time scheduling much sooner.

Some additional thoughts on our waitlists:

*One of the biggest things we caution new families, is do not restrict yourself to one place to waitlist. If a company requires you to move your referral to them to hold your spot, maybe its a spot not worth holding? Services starting sooner are the most important thing versus locking yourself in to a waitlist that is restrictive.

*If we are honored to be your choice, but can start services elsewhere while you wait, do that. Time is not on your side when it comes to starting services.

* We generally have a short wait, however, that time is highly variable dependent on your child's scheduling availability and location where services are to occur.

* Generally, you can expect anywhere from 1-4 months.

* Daytime Therapy (9:00AM - 3:00PM) - We usually have openings in the 1-2 month timeframe.

* After School Therapy (3:00PM - 7:00PM) - The waitlist for this time slot can be the longest.

Yes! Just as with your primary medical care provider, you are able to choose from a list of ABA Therapy providers. Even if you already have one! In many cases, when Tricare receives a referral request from a diagnosing medical professional, they may randomly choose an ABA provider for you. If you would like to have H3 Therapy as your provider, request us by calling Tricare @ (866) 323-7155. We would be honored!

We are all in home and/or in community therapy provider. We found that having to juggle a schedule with multiple therapy appointments, siblings schedules and the hectic day to day of military life can present challenges should you be restricted to a specific session place. Additionally, behavior happens everywhere. We go, most times, where your child goes…from daycare to school settings, from the park to the grocery store and everywhere in between, we work with you to tailor programming in the settings that are relevant to you and your child that plans for generalizations of skills from the beginning.

Our normal area of coverage is Clarksville and Fort Campbell. We will consider traveling outside these areas on a case by case basis where scheduling opportunities arise.

According to Baer, Wolf, & Risley(1968): “Applied Behavior Analysis is the process of systematically applying interventions based upon the principles of learning theory to improve socially significant behaviors to a meaningful degree, and to demonstrate that the interventions employed are responsible for the improvement in behavior“ Or simply put, we use behavior change principles to address the symptoms of your child’s autism by focusing on his or her communication, social or adaptive skills deficits.

Applied Behavior Analysis is endorsed as a treatment for autism by the American Medical Association, American Academy of Pediatrics and the U.S. Surgeon General. While faddish interventions for autism treatment come and go, ABA therapy remains one of the most recommended and proven interventions for individuals diagnosed with ASD.

We strive to provide both discrete trial training and incidental teaching methods resulting in our sessions alternating between seated table work and play. This allows your child to receive the direct instruction to acquire new skills, while continually working on providing opportunities for your child to practice these new skills in the natural environment. Most have said that ABA therapy sessions looks like play… That's the goal!

As our programs are individualized to your child, we can only give you broad details of therapy scheduling. Some clients have 2 hour session, some have longer, but to be truly individualized we meet the needs of your family and child’s schedule without forcing you into predetermined session length.

This depends on the child receiving services and the family’s schedule. As our programs are individualized to your child, we can only give you broad details of therapy scheduling. Some clients have 2 hour sessions per day, some have longer and more frequent sessions, but to be truly individualized we meet the needs of your family and child’s schedule without forcing you into predetermined session length or schedule.

We understand that an additional therapy can cause some adjustments to scheduling, we work to minimize impact upon the child and the family by individualizing treatment schedules, providing therapy in home/in community, and not restricting therapy sessions to a predetermine schedule.

As parents of a teenager on the spectrum, we know that families need assistance throughout the lifespan. We work with individuals from 2-26 years of age. We do not limit what ages we work with nor do we clump your child into a learning cohort, we are truly individualized to the learner.

We understand military families and the frequency of PCS moves! In the event you will be relocating, we will coordinate with your new service provider to ensure a seamless transition from our services to your new provider, wherever that may be.

Like any field, we learn from our past. While previous practitioners, like other fields (medicine, psychology), ABA had to change and remove some of the negative aspects of the field (ableism, exclusivity, cultural biases, and use of harmful stimuli). As medicine and psychology could be viewed as barbaric through a historical lens, ABA is not exempt from this scrutiny. As practitioners, we are required to change how we approach the science by changing approaches to inclusive learning, embracing cultural competency and removal of ableist goals. Today, ABA is supposed to enhance the individual we are working with and provide instruction to gain skills for a productive life that’s meaningful to them. No longer do we spend endless hours removing harmless stimming behaviors and requiring eye contact. ABA’s goal is not to aim for normalcy, but to find a path to inclusivity. As a field, we evolve, just like the others.
