Clinic-Based ABA Therapy in Glen Carbon, IL
Play-centered early intervention specifically for children ages 2 to 8, supporting families in Glen Carbon and Metro East communities.
When your child receives an autism diagnosis, you need more than a therapy provider. You need a supportive team that understands your family’s journey. At our Glen Carbon clinic, our Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs) transform play-based activities into opportunities to build communication, social, and daily living skills in a nurturing, child-centered environment.
Conveniently Located for Madison County Families
Our Glen Carbon autism clinic is purposefully designed to feel like a bright, welcoming preschool. Located at 4559 Benes Ave, our clinic is easy to access, right off State Route 159, approximately 2 miles southeast of Ray M. Schon Park, and an easy 10-minute drive from the Southern Illinois University Edwardsville campus.
Because we know multi-day therapy requires a sensible commute for parents, our dedicated facility serves families traveling from Edwardsville, Maryville, Troy, Bethalto, Collinsville, and throughout the northern Metro East region.
