ABA therapy in Paterson, New Jersey reaches families across Passaic County's largest city, where consistent in-home services have historically been hard to find. Mastermind Behavior is a BCBA-owned, in-home only ABA therapy provider, founded in 2016 and serving families across New Jersey, Georgia, and North Carolina. In Paterson, your child works with a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) and a Behavior Technician (BT) in your apartment or home, where they actually live and learn. Whether your family is near the Great Falls, in South Paterson, or out toward the Eastside, we come to you.
Paterson is the seat of Passaic County and the third-largest city in New Jersey, with about 159,000 residents. Paterson Public Schools is one of the largest districts in the state, and the student population is predominantly Hispanic, with significant Arab-American, Bangladeshi, and African-American communities. The South Paterson neighborhood, sometimes called Little Ramallah, has one of the largest Arab-American populations on the East Coast.
St. Joseph's University Medical Center on Main Street is the anchor pediatric and developmental specialist hub for many local families. After an autism diagnosis there, scheduling consistent ABA therapy in the home is often the hardest next step. That's the gap our model is built for. Our BCBAs and BTs work in your living room or kitchen, around the school day and around the shift work common for many Paterson families. For toddlers diagnosed early, Mastermind also provides early intervention ABA therapy before kindergarten, so families can build skills at home from the very beginning.

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.
