In-Home ABA Therapy · Twin Cities
Therapy that fits into your family's everyday life
Some kids learn best where they already feel safe. And some days, just getting everyone out the door feels like a lot.
With in-home ABA therapy, our team comes to you. Your child works one-on-one with a behavior therapist right where life happens, at the kitchen table, at bedtime, and playing with brothers and sisters, so new skills show up where your family needs them most.

What your child works on at home
Every session follows your child's individualized treatment plan, built around the moments that matter most to your family.
-
Communication and social skills
Asking for what they need, sharing what they think, and connecting with the people around them, every day.
-
Daily living skills
Getting dressed, mealtimes, brushing teeth, and bedtime routines, practiced in the real places they happen.
-
Playing with siblings and friends
Taking turns, sharing toys, and joining in, with brothers, sisters, and friends who come over to play.
-
Out in the community
When it fits your child's goals, sessions can happen at the park, the store, or daycare, so new skills work everywhere.
-
Working with school and other providers
We coordinate with your child's school, speech therapist, OT, and other providers, so everyone's working toward the same goals.
-
Skills you can keep using
Family skills training shows you how to support your child between sessions, so progress keeps going long after we leave.
Because therapy happens in your home, the skills your child learns are the ones your family uses every day.

Therapy begins at home
Your child's behavior therapist starts sessions in your home, with a clinical supervisor guiding the plan and regular check-ins with you.
Getting your home ready
You don't need anything fancy. Here's all it takes.
- A quiet spot to work. Room for a child-sized table and two chairs.
- An adult at home. Someone 18 or older needs to be home during every session.
- A quick form, if needed. If that adult isn't a parent or guardian, we'll just need a signed release of information.
- You, as part of the team. Parents play a big role in helping new skills stick, and we'll show you how.

What families ask about in-home ABA
Bringing therapy into your home is a big step, and it's normal to have questions. Here are the ones we hear most.
Ready to talk it through? A free consult is a relaxed conversation where we get to know your family and tell you honestly whether in-home ABA is a good fit.
How many hours a week is in-home ABA therapy?
In-home ABA programs at MBS range from 20 to 40 hours a week. We offer both full-time and part-time schedules, and your child's clinical team will recommend the right number of hours based on your child's needs.
Does someone need to be home during in-home therapy?
Yes. An adult 18 or older needs to be home during in-home sessions. If that adult isn't a parent or guardian, we'll need a signed release of information from the guardian. When it fits your child's goals, sessions can also happen at daycare or out in the community.
What do we need at home to get started?
Just a quiet space with room for a child-sized table and two chairs, and a willingness to be part of the team. Parents play a big role in helping new skills carry over into everyday life, and we'll show you how.
