Our Programs

Compassionate Care, Awesome Outcomes

In-Home ABA Therapy

We offer convenient 1:1 therapy sessions with our caring and supportive therapists, who work closely with families to build and teach new skills. Since therapy takes place in the home, children learn and grow in a familiar, comfortable environment. Naturally, skills learned at home are more likely to carry over into everyday life and the wider community.

Parent Training

We collaborate with parents, siblings, and caregivers to identify goals important to not only our learners but to the family as a whole. Given that families play a central role in a child’s development, we routinely coach and support them on approaches that lead to the best outcomes. Simply put, parent training is not just an add-on — it is a core part of everything we do.

Our Story

Founded by a mother of a child with autism, Snowflakes ABA was established to provide the highest quality and ethical ABA services possible to people with autism and other developmental disabilities. Having walked in your shoes, we understand first-hand the challenges you are going through. We also know how overwhelming it can feel to navigate the world of ABA for the first time. With that in mind, we consider the treatment of our clients near and dear to our hearts and do our best to help our families by providing in-home ABA therapy across Howard County — Columbia, Laurel, Elkridge, Ellicott City, and Baltimore City — achieve growth and success. Ultimately, every family we serve is treated with the same care and dedication we would want for our own children.

How We Help

Using evidence-based practices, ABA is a treatment toolbox of many methods that have been researched and replicated by scientists since the 1960s and improved upon across the years. Notably, ABA therapy is recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics.

Decades of research confirm that early and consistent ABA intervention leads to meaningful, lasting outcomes. With this in mind, we strive to establish and develop a variety of skills that may be a deficit in individuals with autism, including language, social skills, self-help skills (including toileting), executive functioning, play and leisure skills, along with reducing behaviors that may get in the way of learning and growth. On top of that, our clinicians regularly review each child’s progress to ensure that goals remain relevant and achievable.

ABA therapy for children at Snowflakes ABA in Howard County MD

While every child is different, a comprehensive ABA program will utilize multiple strategies. Still, it should only include interventions that are evidence-based. At Snowflakes ABA, we are equally committed to ethical, assent-based care that respects each child’s voice and dignity.

“Everyone has a mountain to climb and autism has not been my mountain, it has been my opportunity for victory.”
