Helping your child grow through play, connection, and joy

Our team supports your child's development through a child-led clinical model called Naturalistic Developmental Behavioral Intervention (NDBI), an approach grounded in meaningful connection and the science of how young children learn.

Our Services

Specialized care for early learners

At ANNA, we offer two core services, both grounded in the same belief: that every child deserves to be seen fully, celebrated for who they are, and supported in a way that builds on their strengths.

Center-Based NDBI ABA Therapy

Child-led. Play-based. Built on the science of how children actually learn.

At ANNA, ABA therapy is delivered in a center-based setting using an approach called Naturalistic Developmental Behavioral Intervention (NDBI), which combines the evidence base of ABA with decades of research on early childhood development. Our therapists follow your child’s lead, join their play, and build on their interests to create opportunities for communication, connection, and skill development.

More than a diagnosis. A full picture of who your child is.

Our evaluations are conducted by specialist neuropsychologists with deep expertise in early childhood autism. We use the ADOS-2, the gold-standard tool for autism assessment, alongside a comprehensive developmental battery.

  • ADOS-2 gold-standard assessment
  • Conducted by specialist neuropsychologists
  • Strengths-based reporting that opens doors, not closes them
  • Direct pathway to care if services are recommended
