Behavioral Innovations – Charlotte (Wendover Rd)

Hopebridge's Charlotte Southwest center in Mecklenburg County combines center-based applied behavior analysis with occupational therapy, autism diagnostic evaluations, and caregiver guidance for children from about 15 months through 10 years. One-on-one ABA integrates with OT so families can address sensory, motor, and communication-related goals in a coordinated way. The Forest Point Circle location serves Charlotte's southwest corridor with weekday hours geared toward working families. Hopebridge emphasizes early identification, school-readiness supports, and practical strategies parents can use between sessions. North Carolina Hopebridge locations commonly work with Blue Cross Blue Shield of NC, regional Medicaid managed-care plans (Alliance, Partners, Vaya, Trillium, Healthy Blue, UHC CP, AmeriHealth, Wellcare, Carolina Complete, and related products), and Humana. Always confirm your specific member benefits. Additional Charlotte-area Hopebridge centers (University, Huntersville, Indian Trail, Gastonia) offer alternatives if distance or scheduling is a factor.

ABS Kids has delivered applied behavior analysis (ABA) in Charlotte since 2017. Your family can use center-based therapy, at-home ABA, in-school support, and community outings, with a Board Certified Behavior Analyst helping you choose a center-only, home-based, in-school, or blended plan. Charlotte lists many ABA sites across the metro, including Randolph Road (Novant Health Center for Pediatric Development), David Taylor Drive, Hawthorne Lane, East 7th Street, Billingsley, South Tryon, Sardis Road (Matthews area), Blair Road (Mint Hill), and W.T. Harris Boulevard, so you can often pick a location closer to home or school. A separate autism diagnosis clinic on Randolph Road (Suite 100W) offers psychological assessment; that number is (704) 780-4271.

This Behavioral Innovations clinic sits along Mallard Creek Road in the University City and I-85 corridor, often a practical choice for families in north Charlotte, Huntersville, Harrisburg, and Concord. Like other BI North Carolina centers, it serves children roughly 18 months to 10 years with center-based ABA, advertises minimal wait times, lists Monday through Friday 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. hours, and highlights Medicaid and major commercial plans. Social skills and ABA Prep may be available; ask intake for your child's age and goals.
