OUR
STORY

Beautiful Minds Center is a behavioral health clinic that opened its doors in 2003 and since then has been providing in-home behavior modification therapy and other services to children diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder and other related disorders.

Beautiful Minds Center is committed to providing education, counseling and intensive behavioral interventions to foster the development of the child and to enhance the quality of life for all those involved. We combine the traditional principles of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) with humanistic and naturalistic techniques that address the “whole” child, fostering socio-emotional growth and development.

A PERSONALIZED
APPROACH

Beautiful Minds is dedicated to providing a comprehensive and culturally competent program centered on the treatment of children with autism spectrum disorder and other related disorders. Our mission is to promote growth, learning and progress through specialized and individualized programs that are tailored to each child’s specific needs. At Beautiful Minds, we share a common goal to provide families with proven scientific therapies to ensure effectiveness and optimal progress.

HELPING FAMILIES
GET INVOLVED

In order for children to achieve their maximum potential for independent living and emotional well-being in the home, school and community, we believe that caretakers and family members serve as an integral part of the treatment process.

Beautiful Minds Center is unique in that it integrates the family into the treatment process from the onset, where we work hand-in-hand in creating goals and interventions that are both meaningful and achievable.

We have developed an intensive behavioral program available 7 days a week that focuses on increasing positive and adaptive behaviors through scientifically based therapeutic techniques. Each child will work with a team of therapists that employ a combination of techniques to facilitate growth and learning. The main techniques used in our therapy sessions include:
