ABA therapy in East Naples

Located in the heart of Collier County, East Naples is a unique community that serves as the county seat, providing a central hub for residents of the greater Naples-Marco Island metropolitan area. Since 1962, when the county courthouse moved from Everglades, East Naples has been the administrative core of the region, home to the Collier County Government Center and the Collier Museum.

For families in this bustling, unincorporated area, balancing daily life with specialized care needs can be a challenge. Multicultural Development Services Center (MCDS) understands that convenience and accessibility are paramount. That's why we bring Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy directly to your East Naples home, school, or community setting. Our in-home ABA services eliminate the need for stressful commutes to a clinic, allowing your child to learn and develop skills in their most natural and comfortable environment. Therapy is integrated into your family’s daily routines, making it a consistent and familiar part of your child's life.

As an unincorporated community, East Naples offers a diverse range of living environments. MCDS's flexible service model is designed to support families wherever they are in the community. Our Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs) and Registered Behavior Technicians (RBTs) work with your family to create individualized therapy plans. These plans focus on developing crucial communication, social, and daily living skills. For families with dynamic schedules or those who prefer remote options, we also provide telehealth ABA therapy, offering expert guidance and support through secure video conferencing.

Under the leadership of our Executive Director, Damaris Baez, MCDS is committed to supporting families throughout Collier County. We believe in a collaborative approach, working closely with parents and caregivers to provide the tools and strategies needed to foster progress. Our goal is to empower families in East Naples by providing compassionate, evidence-based ABA therapy that is tailored to your child’s specific needs and fits seamlessly into your life.
