New Patterns ABA



New Patterns ABA provides in-home and community-based ABA therapy for children, teens, and adults with autism across Florida. Care happens where families live and learn, in the home and in the community, so skills carry over into everyday routines. Each client is paired with a provider matched to their needs, personality, and goals, and a BCBA designs an individualized plan that evolves with progress. The team takes a whole-person approach. Every client, family, and caregiver has a voice in the process, and parent training is built in so progress continues between sessions. Scheduling is flexible, with daytime, evening, and weekend availability to fit each family's routine. New Patterns ABA is privately owned and family-centered, small enough to know each client personally and experienced enough to support complex needs. The team handles insurance authorizations and paperwork from the first call, working to secure coverage so care can start without delay. Service areas include the Orlando, Tampa Bay, Jacksonville, and South Florida metros and their surrounding communities.
