Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy has proven to be an effective treatment for people with autism. Because early childhood is a crucial time for brain development, ABA therapy during this period has been met with remarkable success. Atlas Autism Health offers early intervention autism therapy in St. Peters, enabling preschoolers with autism to gain the social and adaptive skills they need to set them up for success. 

Our Approach

Our St. Peters autism clinic, like all our clinics, offers play-based therapy for children aged two to six. By allowing our students to play and interact socially, they can naturally acquire the skills children learn in preschool. While our approach is fun and exciting, it has been clinically proven to be effective. We tailor this approach to your child's needs, offering a customized treatment plan with strategies and therapy hours specific to your child's situation. 

Take the Next Step Toward School Readiness

We offer comprehensive therapy through our School-Readiness Therapeutic Early-Intervention Program (STEP). Through small group activities and 1:1 personalized therapy sessions, this program supports children in building the skills they need for a successful transition to elementary classrooms.

STEP occurs in therapy rooms resembling preschool settings, making it easier for children to move from our setting to a school environment. We've also designed our facility to foster social engagement and relationship building, empowering children to learn how to interact socially, understand social cues and communicate effectively. STEP also teaches children the following skills:

• Learning new words
• Taking turns
• Working independently
• Transitioning between activities
• Following group directions

We Foster Guided Growth 

Receiving therapy at our center-based ABA clinic in St. Peters grants you access to outstanding Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs). They will conduct a thorough behavioral assessment before creating a treatment plan and recommending optional treatment hours for your unique situation. 

Throughout treatment at our center, we involve caregivers through monthly meetings and parent training sessions. This will allow you to continue your child's development at home and champion their success. Our BCBAs will also review your child's treatment plan every six months to ensure continual growth.
