Huntersville Families Trust Us

Rated 5/5 by Huntersville Parents
"We love Lake Norman life, but finding autism services in Huntersville was challenging. Most providers wanted us to drive into Charlotte. This team comes to our Birkdale home and our son has blossomed. He's gone from parallel play to actually engaging with other kids at the Huntersville Family Fitness playground."

"CMS's exceptional children's program is great, but ABA therapy has been the accelerator. Our daughter's therapist coordinates with her teacher at Huntersville Elementary and the consistency has been incredible. She's reading, writing her name, and telling us about her day."

"NC Medicaid covered everything, the team handled all the paperwork, and our son started therapy in two weeks. In Huntersville. At our home. I still can't believe how easy they made it. And the results speak for themselves — he's a different kid in the best possible way."

ABA Therapy in the Lake Norman Community

Huntersville, part of the rapidly growing Lake Norman region north of Charlotte, is home to over 64,000 residents who enjoy a perfect blend of suburban family life and easy access to Charlotte's metro amenities. As North Mecklenburg's population surges, families need autism services closer to home — not an hour's drive into uptown Charlotte. Our ABA therapy program serves Huntersville and the Lake Norman corridor with expert, in-home care.

Huntersville children attend Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools (CMS), the state's largest district. CMS provides robust exceptional children's services, and our ABA therapists work closely with CMS teachers to align therapy with classroom goals — from Huntersville Elementary to North Mecklenburg High School.
