ABA Therapy in Winter Park, FL
MCDS provides culturally responsive, BCBA-supervised ABA therapy for children and families in Winter Park, Orange County.
ABA therapy in Winter Park
Known as the "City of Culture and Heritage," Winter Park offers a unique blend of history, natural beauty, and vibrant community life for the nearly 30,000 residents who call it home. Founded in the late 19th century as a resort destination, the city's thoughtful design is still evident today in its beautiful Venetian canals, historic downtown, and the prestigious campus of Rollins College. For families in Winter Park navigating the journey of autism, MCDS provides Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy that is as adaptable and personalized as the city itself.
We understand that a child's development is best supported in their natural environment. That's why our primary services—in-home and community-based ABA therapy—are an ideal fit for Winter Park families. Instead of traveling to a center, our Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs) and Registered Behavior Technicians (RBTs) come to you, integrating therapeutic strategies into your daily routines. This approach allows children to learn and practice essential skills in the familiar comfort of their own home, whether they live near the bustling shops downtown or in a quieter residential area.
Winter Park's numerous parks and public spaces also serve as valuable learning environments. Under the guidance of our clinical team, community-based sessions can help children work on social interaction, safety awareness, and communication skills in real-world settings. For families with demanding schedules, such as those connected to the academic calendar of Rollins College, our telehealth services offer another layer of flexibility, providing consistent, high-quality support remotely.
At MCDS, our mission is to deliver compassionate and effective ABA therapy that respects the needs of each family. Under the leadership of Executive Director Damaris Baez and BCBA Hiram Aguilera, our team is dedicated to supporting the Winter Park community. We partner with you to create a therapy plan that honors your child’s individuality and fits seamlessly into your life in this culturally rich Orange County city.
