Hawthorne is a residential borough of around 19,500 people in southern Passaic County, bordering Bergen County to the east and Paterson to the south. Local children typically attend the Hawthorne Public Schools district, which runs from elementary through Hawthorne High School. Goffle Brook Park sits at the heart of the borough and is a familiar weekend stop for many families.
For ABA therapy, the in-home model removes a recurring problem for working parents in town: getting from a job along Route 208 or out toward Wayne back to a clinic by 4 p.m. for a session. Instead, the Behavior Technician arrives at your address, the work happens in the rooms where the behaviors actually show up, and the BCBA writes the treatment plan around the routines you already have.
Pediatric autism evaluations in this part of New Jersey often run through one of the larger regional health systems, including St. Joseph's Health in nearby Paterson, Valley Health in Ridgewood, and Hackensack Meridian. Once a child has an ABA recommendation, in-home services can usually start within a few weeks.

You’ll celebrate your child’s progress as we work on…
Children with ASD struggle to express their feelings and understand what others are saying. As your child learns to express their wants & needs with gestures, eye contact and language, you’ll feel relieved and hopeful now that you can understand and connect to them better.
Your child CAN function better in your daily life. From putting on their own shoes, to sitting in their chair at the dinner table, your child will learn to function better at home. As they master skills like going to the bathroom, or walking safely across the road, life will become calmer and easier for everyone.
We’ll address self-harm, tantrums and other destructive behaviors so your child can feel happier, safer and be understood. Dealing with these behaviors early on prevents these behaviors from becoming harder to manage as your child gets older.
