Doral & West Miami-Dade
Bilingual ABA Therapy in Doral
Doral families often juggle long work commutes, kids in more than one school, and relatives who help with pickups. Driving to a clinic on top of that is one more thing. Our therapists come to your home, your child's school, or a place in the community instead, and they work in the language your family uses, whether that is Spanish, English, or both.

Fitting therapy around a Doral schedule
Traffic on the Dolphin Expressway and the Turnpike shapes the day here, so we build visits around when your family is actually home. After-school and early-evening sessions are common, and we keep the same therapist on the same days whenever we can.
In households where grandparents or a nanny handle the afternoons, the therapist trains whoever is there, so the plan keeps going between visits instead of waiting for the weekend.
Bilingual families, one plan
Plenty of Doral kids switch between Spanish at home and English at school. We plan for that on purpose, so a request your child learns to make in one language also gets practiced in the other, and nobody at home is left out of the instructions.
More of Doral, block by block
Doral keeps growing west and north of the original warehouses and golf courses, and our visits grow with it. We see families in Downtown Doral's newer towers, in the quieter streets of Doral Isles and Doral Glades, and in the older ranch-style houses near Doral Park, so the practice is not limited to one corner of the city.
Gated communities are common here, and our therapists are used to checking in with security, parking where visitors are allowed, and keeping a predictable arrival time so your gate code or guard list stays simple to manage week after week.
Families near NW 58th Street and NW 112th Avenue tell us the hardest part of adding a service is simply finding parking on a busy block, so we scout the street ahead of a first visit and ask you where other visitors usually leave their cars.
What an in-home visit looks like
A typical visit starts with a few minutes checking in with whoever is home, then moves into play or practice based on the goals in your child's plan. The therapist narrates what they are doing so you can pick it up between sessions, whether that is a mealtime routine, a way to ask for a break, or a calmer way to handle transitions.
If your family splits time between two households, we can coordinate visits so both homes work from the same plan instead of two different sets of rules.
School-based sessions through Miami-Dade County Public Schools
Doral children often attend schools within Miami-Dade County Public Schools as well as nearby charter and private options. When a school agrees to coordinate, our therapist can join your child during part of the school day to practice following directions, sitting through a lesson, or handling a change in the schedule, using the same approach taught at home.
Coordination always starts with your permission and ends with a short summary you can review, so you know what was worked on and how it connects to the goals set at home.

Questions Doral parents ask us
Do you have an office in Doral?
No. Our office is in Key West, and in Doral we work as a mobile practice. Your therapist comes to your home, your child's school when the school coordinates it, or a community setting.
Can sessions happen in the evening?
Often, yes. After-school and early-evening visits are a normal part of our Doral schedule. Availability depends on your area and the therapist, so we confirm it with you before anything starts.
Does Florida Medicaid pay for ABA in Doral?
Florida Medicaid covers ABA for children under 21 when it is medically necessary, after an evaluation and a prior authorization. Our Florida Medicaid and ABA guide explains the whole process.
Can my child's grandmother be trained too?
Yes. Parent and caregiver training is part of ABA, and it can include whoever cares for your child day to day, in Spanish or English.
Do you serve the newer towers in Downtown Doral?
Yes. We schedule visits in condo and apartment buildings throughout Doral, including the newer developments downtown, and we coordinate with building security ahead of time.
What if my child attends a Miami-Dade County Public School in Doral?
When the school agrees to coordinate, a therapist can support your child during part of the school day so strategies used at home carry over into the classroom.
Can a session happen at my gated community's clubhouse or playground?
In many cases, yes, if it fits your child's goals and the community allows it. We discuss the options with you before planning a community session.
