ABA therapy in Tavernier
Located on the southern end of Key Largo, Tavernier offers families a unique slice of life in the Florida Keys. As an unincorporated community in Monroe County with a population of around 2,530 residents, Tavernier is known for its close-knit atmosphere, scenic waterfront, and direct access to the natural beauty of the upper Keys. For families in this special environment navigating the journey of autism spectrum disorder, finding accessible and effective support is essential.
Multicultural Development Services Center (MCDS) is proud to serve the Tavernier community by providing Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy that is designed to fit the distinctive lifestyle of the Keys. We understand that life in Tavernier revolves around a different pace, where travel often means a trip up or down the Overseas Highway. Our commitment is to bring compassionate, evidence-based care directly to you, minimizing logistical stress and maximizing support where it's most effective: in your child's natural environment.
Our services are centered on flexibility and personalization. MCDS offers in-home ABA therapy, allowing our Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs) and Registered Behavior Technicians (RBTs) to work with your child in the comfort and familiarity of your own home. This approach helps children develop crucial skills in the setting where they are most likely to use them. We also provide community-based services, integrating therapeutic goals into local outings, and can collaborate with your child’s school to ensure consistency across all areas of their life. For families needing additional flexibility, our telehealth services provide a convenient option for remote parent training and consultation.
At MCDS, we believe in a collaborative partnership with parents and caregivers. Under the guidance of professionals like our BCBA, Hiram Aguilera, our team works to understand your family’s unique needs and goals. We are dedicated to providing culturally sensitive and bilingual services to support the diverse fabric of the Tavernier community.
