ABA therapy in North Naples

Multicultural Development Services Center (MCDS) is proud to offer dedicated ABA therapy services to families in North Naples, Florida. As a unique unincorporated community in Collier County, North Naples encompasses a variety of distinct residential areas, including Naples Park, Pelican Bay, and Pine Ridge. We understand that for families in these neighborhoods, accessing consistent, high-quality support for children with autism is a priority, and our flexible service model is designed to meet you where you are.

Our primary focus is providing in-home and community-based Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy. This approach eliminates the need for stressful commutes to a center, allowing therapy to take place in the environment where your child is most comfortable and where skills are most often used: your home. Whether you live near the grounds of Gulf Coast High School or in a quieter residential street, our Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs) and Registered Behavior Technicians (RBTs) come to you, integrating therapeutic goals into your family’s daily routines.

For children attending schools in the area, MCDS is committed to a collaborative approach. We support families with children in the District School Board of Collier County by developing ABA programs that can complement Individualized Education Program (IEP) goals. By reinforcing learning and behavior strategies at home, we help bridge the gap between school and daily life. Our services are also available via telehealth, providing a crucial layer of flexibility for busy families or during the region's hot, rainy summers.

Being part of the North Naples community means being connected to its resources. We recognize the importance of institutions like the North Naples Hospital, part of the NCH system, in providing comprehensive care. MCDS aims to be a trusted partner in your child's network of support. Under the leadership of our Executive Director, Damaris Baez, and clinical guidance from supervisors like Hiram Aguilera, BCBA, our team is dedicated to providing professional and compassionate ABA services to families throughout North Naples.
