ABA Therapy in Iowa

Integrative mental health services for siblings, parents and families to support the whole family and child.

Getting Out What Is Given

Beyond Behavior ABA therapy in Iowa is founded on the principle that behaviors change when individuals are given positive reinforcement and opportunities to practice the new behaviors in supportive, engaging environments.

Reaping what is passionately sewn

Family Focused Goals

Prioritized goals are based on skills that are important to the client and their family. Beyond Behavior highly values the relationships with families and clients and strive to create a collaborative, shared space for growth. 

Get Started

Competent Staff On The Forefront Of Care

Staff are continually learning and implementing treatment practice that correlates to current research. Being up to date with the best ABA practices and ongoing research guarantees the staff is growing just as much as the client on a daily basis. The behavior interventions at Beyond Behavior are far from old and stale.

What It’s Like Getting Enrolled

For families who have never enrolled in ABA therapy in Iowa, getting started can feel intimidating. The Beyond Behavior team is here to help every single step of the way and answer any questions. Below, you can learn more about the enrollment process that takes place after contacting us.

1) Contact Us

A family member can complete the online referral form to request ABA. Contact us to receive the online form.

2) Beyond Behavior Reaches Out To You

Our Clinic Administrator will contact the family to help obtain the required documents; copies of the client’s insurance cards and diagnostic report.  The Clinic Administrator will send the family additional documents that can be signed online and returned.

3) Insurance Authorization

Once the needed documents are received, the Clinic Administrator will request authorization from insurance for an assessment.  When approval for the assessment is received, the Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) will schedule an assessment appointment with the family.  

4) BCBA Assessment

This appointment allows the BCBA to determine the appropriateness of ABA, ask questions regarding skills and priorities of the family, and complete standardized assessments.  The BCBA will write a treatment plan to submit to the client insurance for authorization.  When authorization is received, the treatment can begin in clinic. 

5) Start Ongoing Therapy

With a personalized plan created, and insurance authorized, the client and family can now move forward with attending ongoing therapy based on their schedule, goals, and needs.

TESTIMONIALS

What People Are Saying About Beyond Behavior

My son started the ABA program in April of 2021. We were nervous leaving his old school, but to our delight, he is thriving. I can tell all my son’s providers: Katie, Abby, Bev, Sammi and Cami go above and beyond for the kids they are supporting, and they truly care about their successes. They are very attentive to my child’s needs and great at communicating how his day went/any changes in behaviors, etc.
