Terapia ABA en Fort Myers Beach

MCDS provides compassionate, evidence-based ABA therapy services to families in Fort Myers Beach, a unique Lee County town situated on the barrier island of Estero Island. We understand that for the 5,500 residents of this Gulf Coast community, life is shaped by the water, from the fishing industry that followed the discovery of "pink gold" shrimp in the 1950s to the seasonal tourism that defines its modern economy.

Incorporated in 1995, Fort Myers Beach has a rich history of resilience and community building. From its earliest Calusa inhabitants to the development of the first free public library in Lee County—the Beach Library—the town has always adapted to meet the needs of its people. We recognize that life on a barrier island, connected to the mainland by a bridge over Estero Bay, presents unique circumstances for families seeking consistent developmental support for their children. The challenges of navigating traffic, especially during tourist season or in the aftermath of events like Hurricane Ian, can make accessing clinic-based services difficult.

This is why MCDS focuses on providing flexible ABA therapy options that fit your life. Our in-home ABA therapy brings our dedicated practitioners to you, allowing your child to learn and grow in their most familiar environment. This approach minimizes family stress and logistical hurdles. We also offer telehealth services, providing a vital link to consistent care, which is especially important for a community familiar with hurricane season disruptions. For children ready to practice skills in a broader context, our community-based sessions can take place in settings that are a natural part of island life.

Under the leadership of our Executive Director, Damaris Baez, and Hiram Aguilera, BCBA, MCDS is committed to supporting Fort Myers Beach families. We provide individualized care plans that respect your family's values and address your child's specific needs, helping them build skills for greater independence and community participation.
