If your child has been diagnosed with autism, finding the right ABA therapy can feel overwhelming. You may be searching for local ABA therapy at home, an ABA therapy consultation near me, or an ABA therapy provider that accepts your insurance.
And if you have Premera Blue Cross and live in Seattle or the surrounding King County area, you may be wondering:
Is there an ABA provider that comes to my home, accepts my insurance, and offers something different from the traditional ABA model?
The answer may be Thrive ABA Therapy.
We provide play-based, individualized ABA therapy directly from BCBAs through our BCBA-only model.
What Does BCBA-Only ABA Therapy Mean?
At Thrive ABA Therapy, BCBAs provide your child's direct ABA therapy. We do not use behavior technicians to provide your child's therapy.
This is what makes our model different.
In many traditional ABA practices, a BCBA develops and oversees a treatment plan while a behavior technician provides most of the direct therapy. The BCBA may supervise the technician and periodically work directly with the child.
At Thrive ABA Therapy, the model is different.
The BCBA is the person providing the therapy.
Your child's BCBA is the person who gets to know your child, builds a relationship with them, plays with them, teaches new skills, works directly with your family, evaluates progress, and makes clinical decisions throughout treatment.
We call this our BCBA-only model because we believe children and families deserve access to the clinician providing their care.
Local ABA Therapy That Comes to Your Home
Children don't live their lives in a therapy clinic.
They live at home. They play in their neighborhoods. They go to school. They visit parks, stores, playgrounds, and community spaces. They interact with siblings and parents.
That's why Thrive provides in-home ABA therapy and community-based services.
Being in your child's natural environment allows therapy to focus on skills that matter in everyday life.
Maybe your child is working on communication during mealtime.
Maybe they're learning how to transition from a favorite activity.
Maybe they're developing independence with getting dressed.
Maybe they're learning to play with a sibling.
These everyday moments can become meaningful opportunities for learning.
Our goal isn't simply to complete therapy sessions. Our goal is to help children build skills that make everyday life more successful, meaningful, and joyful.
Play-Based ABA Therapy
ABA therapy doesn't have to feel like sitting at a table completing worksheets.
Children learn through play, exploration, relationships, movement, and everyday experiences.
At Thrive, we use play-based ABA therapy to help children develop communication, social, adaptive, independence, and other meaningful skills.
If your child loves dinosaurs, we might use dinosaurs.
If they love bubbles, we might use bubbles.
If they want to run outside, we may build learning opportunities into outdoor play.
If they love pretending, we can turn pretend play into opportunities to practice communication, flexibility, social interaction, and problem-solving.
We want children to experience therapy as a place where they can learn, connect, and have fun.
We Believe in Spreading Joy
There is more to a child's development than meeting treatment goals.
We want children to experience joy.
We want them to have opportunities to discover what they love, build confidence, communicate what they need, participate in family life, and develop greater independence.
ABA therapy should support a child's quality of life—not simply measure how many skills they can complete during a therapy session.
That's why we take a strengths-based, individualized approach to every child we serve.
Empowering Parents Is Part of ABA Therapy
Parents shouldn't have to feel like observers in their child's therapy.
At Thrive, parent involvement is an important part of treatment.
Because your child's BCBA is providing direct therapy, parents have the opportunity to learn alongside the clinician and see strategies being used in real time.
We work with parents and caregivers to help them understand why we are teaching particular skills and how they can support their child's progress during everyday routines.
You know your child better than anyone.
We bring our clinical expertise, and you bring your knowledge of your child.
Together, we can create strategies that actually fit your family's life.

A Different Kind of ABA Provider for Seattle Families
There isn't one ABA therapy model that is right for every child.
Some families prefer a traditional clinic model. Others are looking for something smaller, more personal, and more directly connected to a BCBA.
At Thrive ABA Therapy, we created our practice for families who want something different.
BCBA-only. Play-based. In-home. Personalized.
And most importantly, centered around your child and your family.
If you're a Seattle-area family with Premera Blue Cross insurance looking for in-home ABA therapy, we would love the opportunity to meet you.
