Indianapolis is home base for B Above. Our office is downtown on North Illinois Street, and Marion County is where we’ve served families the longest. We provide evidence-based ABA therapy and autism diagnostic evaluations in your child’s natural environment: at home, at school, and around the city. We don’t run a clinic, so you won’t be driving I-465 three times a week.
Marion County families have a lot of choices for ABA therapy, and the right fit depends on your child, your schedule, and how you want therapy to work. If you’d rather not build your week around trips to a center, in-home ABA is worth a look.
Indy is a big, spread-out city. A family in Lawrence driving to a clinic in Speedway, or a family in Franklin Township crossing town to the northside, can lose 45 minutes or more each way at rush hour. Do that four or five days a week and therapy turns into a second job.
Natural Environment ABA takes the drive out of it. Your child’s sessions happen during the routines that actually challenge them: getting ready for school, mealtimes, sibling conflicts, a trip to the grocery store, the playground at Holliday Park. Skills learned in those moments carry over to real life faster than skills practiced in a therapy room. And because you’re coached during real routines, you leave every session knowing what to do the next time a hard moment comes.
Plenty of families search for an “ABA clinic in Indianapolis” because they assume that’s the only option. Center-based ABA works well for some children, especially those who need a lot of peer interaction in a structured setting. It isn’t the only evidence-based model, though, and for many families it isn’t the best fit.
Here’s how to think about it:
If you’re not sure which model fits your child, call us. We’ll give you an honest answer, even if that answer is a center.
We support the whole family through every stage of the journey:
One-on-one ABA therapy designed and supervised by Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs) and delivered by Registered Behavior Technicians (RBTs). Sessions happen at home, at school, at daycare, or out in the community.
Comprehensive evaluations for children and teens, completed by a licensed clinical psychologist (HSPP). You get a formal diagnosis and a written report you can use for insurance or Medicaid coverage.
Structured training so you can confidently handle routines, transitions, and hard behaviors between sessions.
Many Indianapolis families start with a referral from their pediatrician, and the search for an evaluation can feel overwhelming. A medical diagnosis matters, because your child can’t start insurance-covered ABA without one.
Our evaluations are completed by a licensed clinical psychologist (HSPP), and you’ll leave with a formal diagnosis and written report you can use for insurance or Medicaid. We work to schedule evaluations and start services as quickly as possible. If you’re already waiting on an evaluation somewhere else, you don’t have to give up that spot to talk with us.
We provide in-home ABA therapy throughout Marion County, including:
North of the county line? Visit our Carmel ABA Services page for Hamilton County families. For statewide coverage, see our Indiana ABA Services page.
Indiana’s autism insurance mandate requires state-regulated health plans to cover autism diagnosis and treatment, including ABA therapy. Self-funded employer plans (common at large Indianapolis employers) aren’t always bound by the state mandate, so it’s worth verifying your benefits before you assume either way. We accept most major plans, including Anthem, Aetna, Cigna, Optum, and MHS, as well as Indiana Medicaid.
We start with a warm, welcoming conversation to understand your family’s needs, concerns, and hopes.
Our clinicians take the time to get to know your child’s strengths, needs, and full developmental profile.
We build a care plan tailored to your child’s needs and your family’s goals.
We provide continuous support and progress monitoring as your child grows toward the goals that matter most to your family.
It depends on your insurance, your location, and your child’s needs. Call us and we’ll give you a real timeline instead of a vague estimate.
We specialize in early intervention through early childhood and school-age youth, focusing on natural environment training tailored to your child’s individual goals.
That’s your call, and you don’t have to give up your spot to talk with us. A diagnosis from our licensed psychologist is valid for starting insurance-covered ABA. Call us and we’ll walk you through our current timing.
Yes, for children under 21 through the EPSDT benefit. Indiana updated its Medicaid ABA rules in 2026, so our team verifies your current eligibility and handles prior authorization for you.
Yes. A school IEP provides classroom support, but insurance-covered ABA requires a medical diagnosis from a qualified professional. We can help you figure out where you are in that process.
Often, yes. With your permission and the school’s agreement, our team can work alongside teachers and staff so the skills your child builds in therapy carry over to the classroom.
We provide ABA therapy and diagnostic evaluations for children and teens. Early intervention gives the best outcomes, but we support families at every stage.
