In-Home ABA Therapy Services
in Durham
Durham families deserve care that works with real life, not against it. In-home ABA brings structured, BCBA-led support into the routines your child already knows.
In-Home ABA Therapy
Therapy happens where your child lives, plays, and learns, so new skills carry over naturally into daily routines in your Durham home.
Parent Training
Our BCBAs coach you through the strategies used in sessions, so you can support your child’s progress with confidence between visits.
ABA Assessment
A BCBA evaluates your child’s skills and needs, then builds a clear, personalized treatment plan with measurable goals.
Evidence-Led ABA Therapy
for Durham Kids
Applied behavior analysis is one of the most widely researched approaches for supporting children with autism. At The Lighthouse, every Durham program is designed and supervised by a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) and focuses on communication, social skills, daily living skills, and emotional regulation.
From Trinity Park to Southpoint, our Durham team supports children, teens, and young adults ages 2 to 21 as part of our ABA therapy services across North Carolina, whether your child was recently diagnosed or is preparing for the transition to adulthood.
