About
Friendship ABA
Friendship ABA offers a warm and engaging environment where learning happens through play, routines, and joyful interaction.
We meet your child where they are, and help them move forward at their own pace.
Led by Dr. Yosef Peysin, PhD, BCBA-D, we provide relationship-based ABA services for autistic children, partnering with families and schools so children learn in ways that respect who they are.
Why Families Choose Us for ABA
Effective Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) Therapy
Friendship ABA is grounded in the most advanced and effective ABA approaches available today: Verbal Behavior Development Theory (VBDT), developed at Columbia University. This cutting-edge, relationship-based model goes beyond traditional ABA by focusing on how children learn. The result is deeper understanding, stronger relationships, and more lasting progress.
Nurturing, Joy-Filled Center
Friendship ABA offers a warm and engaging environment — where learning happens through play, routines, and joyful interaction.
We offer half-day and full-day programs and a simple intake process for families with most insurances, including Medicaid, accepted. We also are a Autism Scholarship and Jon Peterson Scholarship Provider.
Personalized Support Plans
Each plan combines direct teaching and family involvement to create meaningful progress.
Services include:
1:1 Therapy with an RBT: Focused teaching sessions built around communication, play, and life skills.
Ongoing BCBA Supervision: Continuous oversight to ensure programs remain effective and individualized.
Treatment Planning and Program Adaptation: Regular updates to keep goals relevant and challenging as your child grows
Family Support and Parent Coaching: Training caregivers in the same strategies used during sessions, so skills carry over at home and in the community.
Integrated Socialization
Friendship ABA also provides social growth through real play with other children thanks to integration with Friendship Circle programs.
Through this integration families gain more than therapy, they gain community. Friendship Circle offers social programs, camps, holiday celebrations and ongoing support into adulthood. That means your child doesn’t “age out” of support, they grow within a community that knows them, values them, and continues to support them as they enter school and beyond.
