Harsha Autism Center

The staff is not on the same page with thing Someone set my daughter appointment and when I called took I found the appointment they did not know who set the appointment so they sent me up an appointment. They did not send me no email like they did the other time so I called thinking the appointment was today But the appointment was the following day so now they got me back on the waiting list so my daughter can be seen the team is not on one when it comes down to taking care of business

So, our journey with autism has been an experience. It started with feeling lost and not knowing where to go next. A doctor suggested Harsha for my son, who was four at the time. We got him in and things started changing for the better. Thanks to Harsha, we went from feeling lost with our son, to having a solid plan. He was was in the program for a couple of years and it made all of the difference in the world. He couldn’t go to school before, now he goes and loves it. He is thriving. Hannah was his BCBA, and we couldn’t have asked for a better person to work with. She created a plan and ultimately got him successfully back into the classroom. Hannah was incredible. Along with Hannah, all of the techs that worked with my son were great. They helped us get our son back.

I am very disappointed in the shift in focus at this center. They used to be a patient-centered facility. Now, they are a process-oriented facility (process takes priority above the patient need). The change started over a year ago with a near complete change in staff. Under the newly hired BCBA Hannah, the center has disappointed my family time and time again with unethical practice, outright lies, and choices that put the safety of my boys at risk. If there is another center you can attend, do it! If your child attends here, I highly recommend having a back-up plan (get on a waitlist now for another facility) for whenever they decide to dump and drop your child(ren) via text message with a 15 business day notice--despite having insuramce coverage through 2 more months, which would have been extended with a new plan. Our last parent meeting was on July 20th, and nothing was stated about ending services. We discussed new plans for the services. This is hardest on my boys. I hope Dr. Harshawat hires a new competent and ethical BCBA to turn this facility around very soon. As a note: there are wonderful RBTs and staff at this center, but the leadership is unacceptable.

Love love love my job! I get to see and be a part of something huge in these children’s’ lives. I see milestones everyday and love to watch them grow. Management is great and I always feel heard and understood. Staff is super friendly and welcoming . I go home everyday happy with what I do

This facility has given my daughter special forms of quality of life that public school never could. If your child needs ABA services, I highly recommend becoming part of the Harsha Autism Center family!

I want to thank Harsha for taking our troubled Autistic teen when no one else would, I don't know what we would have done without your help. Your staff Member coordinating director, "Rob" I won't mention his full name in case it's not allowed, has been amazing in trying to get us additional placement and help for our son after leaving your facility. God bless him. We felt safe leaving our son in your care. That hasn't been true in other facilities. :( I really wish you had a residential housing unit for teens and youth on the Autism spectrum. These children seem to fall through the cracks. :( that being said, I am happy to know you do have another facility that teaches Autistic youths, life skills. I just wish they accepted our insurance like your behavior unit does. I pray they except Medicaid soon. Thank you for housing our son, and caring for him for as long as you possibly could. I'm glad our new Therapist recommend you to us in our time of need. This review is for the Harsha Behavior Hospital, not the cognitive center, since they don't have Inpatient services there, but I'm sure they are just as great.
