Applied Behavioral Advancements, LLC

My son’s life has changed for the better with the help of his RBT’s and others at the London office!! He goes five days a week and he can now shop in a store, go to church, eat at a restaurant and more! So thankful for ABA!

I am so grateful that my son is finally in ABA therapy. I had read horror stories about ABA therapy and didn’t really know what to expect. I knew that my non-verbal autistic son desperately needed help expressing himself and with everyday life skills. Since coming to Applied Behavioral Advancements, he has came such a long way!!! Just to name a few things… He has a more thorough understanding of his communication device, and he uses it everyday for his needs and wants, he has started picking up things that he drops or spills, and his tantrums have become less frequent because we understand each other better. His therapist is so kind and patient with him. I can tell she loves him and has high hopes for him and it truly makes my heart melt. All staff members at the London facility are respectful and are very knowledgeable about autism because several, if not most of them, have family members on the spectrum. You feel welcomed here and like part of a family. I have an amazing case manager that never fails to let me know that she is always there for me and my son if we ever need anything. I can’t thank Advanced Behavioral Advancements enough. They have changed our lives in such a positive way and have given us so much hope for the future.

ABA therapy has been great for my son and this agency is very professional. I have only had one complaint and when I brought it to their attention they addressed it swiftly and professionally. Very thankful for this business.

My son’s RBT Jessica Fuson was the best thing to ever happen to him. She has changed his life. We cannot thank this agency enough!

People need to know what kind of individuals run this establishment. My autistic son was a client here for over 6 months. He grew to trust and even bond with his RBT and clinician, as did I. They were always encouraging and respectful. My only problem was the travel. We are a single income family, struggling as most others are now. I was traveling 100+ miles each session, twice a week for the most part. So last month when I discovered that they had finally opened an ABA service facility here in my little hometown, I was ecstatic and relieved.. I, being a person with morals and ethics, let both his RBT and Clinician know that we were going to try to get in the works of getting him transitioned there. They knew it wasn't out of malice or any wrongdoing on their part, that it simply came down to being able to afford to help him get more services and sessions. And they both celebrated and acted happy for us as well, knowing what this would mean for my son and the rest of my family as well. They also knew there was a waiting list and we weren't going to be transitioning over there for some time still. They reassured me they didn't take it personally, and that they would do everything they could to help make the transition as smooth as possible for him (as they knew transitions are one of his biggest behavior problems). We all agreed that it would be good to go down to one day a week for our sessions, to help prepare him for the move. When out of the blue we started getting cancelled on, for some reason or another. And me, understanding that life just happens sometimes, completely understood, but was oblivious to the undertones that are very clear to me now. Fast forward to the day before his scheduled session this week when I receive a phone call from them, but it was not his RBT, nor his clinician on the other end. The receptionist proceeded to tell me that they were terminating his services (out of the BLUE) because their RBT's "need to make money". Mind you, I was not the one that had cancelled the last time, and I can count on one hand how many times I have in the last 6 months. Each time with sufficient enough notice, and good reasoning with doctors notes, if they needed them. It was at that moment I realized that we were nothing more than dollar signs and paychecks to them, beyond that they didn't care about us. They still haven't bothered to call or even attempt to apologize or even say goodbye to my son. It was like my whole world and everything I had worked so hard to build with him there just came crashing down around us. So I wanted to come here to warn people, they will pull you in and make you feel like family and that they are people who you can trust... but the moment they realize you are no longer of any monetary value, they will drop you without any warning, and they definitely wont tell you to your face or even have the guts to tell you themselves. So here we are, stuck in the dreaded "in-between" waiting for a call at the new place that may not come for a very long time. All in all, if you are a kind and decent, considerate person, they will take advantage of you, and it will certainly not be reciprocated in the end. So please, for you and the sake of your loved one's who are considering getting services here, please look anywhere else. There are some truly fabulous places out there that offer far more services, and I'm sure they wont leave you feeling like a doormat when you are done. I do not want another parent like myself (or client), to ever experience the hurt and betrayal that my son and I both felt, and still feel today. These people do not care about you, unless you can benefit them monetarily, and when that becomes an issue, they will leave you with you and your child's heart in your hands and a bunch of wasted time. They are good at being deceptive, because I most definitely never saw this coming. So PLEASE spare yourselves the heartache and trouble and DO NOT choose this place for your behavioral service needs.
