Group-based ABA Services

Now Registering: Fall Groups — Open Until August 24, 2025! 

Looking for a supportive, engaging space to build important life skills? Our ABA-based skill-building groups are designed to help children, teens, and adults strengthen their abilities in areas like play, emotional regulation, communication, relationships and dating, career readiness, and more. 

Participants are thoughtfully matched by age, strengths, and personal goals to ensure every group is a positive, enriching experience. 


Is a Group Program the right fit? 

Our groups are designed to support learning in a fun and encouraging environment. With a 3:1 participant-to-clinician ratio, our groups are best suited for individuals who benefit from peer interaction and can engage in group activities with light guidance. 

Group services may be a good fit for individuals who: 

  • Can participate with support from one clinician working with a small group of peers 
  • Are mostly independent with daily routines (e.g., is toilet trained for in-person programs) 
  • Can manage in a group setting without frequent behaviours that are disruptive or difficult to redirect 

We understand that every child is on their own path. If your child currently needs more one-on-one support or is working on reducing challenging behaviors, we’d be happy to talk about alternative services to help set them up for long-term success. 

Let’s find the right group together! 

Start by connecting with our team — we’ll help guide you to the group that aligns best with your or your child’s goals and abilities.

  • May be eligible for coverage through OAP Core Clinical Services funding and some private insurance plans.
  • Uses evidence-based strategies from Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA) to teach skills in a structured, supportive, and enjoyable setting.
  • Is supervised by a Registered Behaviour Analyst, R.B.A. (Ont.) to ensure high-quality, individualized programming.
