Terapia ABA en Tradition

Located within the heart of Florida's Treasure Coast, Tradition is a prominent community in Port St. Lucie, the most populous city in St. Lucie County. The area's history is one of remarkable transformation, growing from largely uninhabited land with a few fishing camps in the 1950s to a formally incorporated city in 1961. Today, Port St. Lucie is a thriving city with a 2020 population of over 204,851 residents, and planned communities like Tradition are central to its family-oriented identity.

The development of large-scale residential areas in the city, such as St. Lucie West which began in the 1990s, set a precedent for creating self-contained neighborhoods with a focus on quality of life. For families in communities like Tradition, this means balancing work, school, and extracurriculars within a sprawling suburban landscape. When a child is diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder, adding therapy appointments to this schedule can be challenging. Multicultural Development Services Center (MCDS) understands that care needs to fit into your life, not disrupt it.

Our approach is centered on providing ABA (Applied Behavior Analysis) therapy directly in your family’s natural environments. We offer in-home ABA therapy, bringing our services to the comfort and privacy of your Tradition home. This allows children to learn and practice new skills in the setting where they are most comfortable. We also believe in using the wider community as a classroom. Port St. Lucie’s beautiful natural landmarks, from the historic Spruce Bluff Preserve to the banks of the St. Lucie River, can serve as ideal backdrops for community-based therapy sessions, helping children generalize skills in real-world settings.

Under the leadership of Executive Director Damaris Baez, MCDS is committed to providing flexible and accessible ABA therapy to families throughout Tradition and the greater Port St. Lucie area. By offering in-home, telehealth, and community-based services, we help families build essential skills and foster independence without the need for constant travel to a clinical center.
