For school-age children, a consistent and predictable therapy schedule is essential for success. While the exact number of hours is tailored to each child’s unique needs by a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA), the provided guidelines recommend the following:

• Establishing a Routine: It is recommended to begin by selecting two or three fixed time slots each week and treating them as non-negotiable appointments.
• Consistency: Maintaining a steady, predictable rhythm helps children transition from the school day to therapy sessions with less resistance. This consistency is vital for reinforcing progress toward school readiness and IEP goals for autism.

Because every child’s path toward independence unfolds at a different pace, your clinical team will use assessments to craft a personalized plan that fits seamlessly into your family’s schedule. Small, regular sessions are emphasized to build confidence and lasting skills over time.

Note: Results may vary, and you should always consult a licensed healthcare professional for medical advice regarding your child’s specific treatment plan.
