Rooted Support: In-Home & Community-Based BCBA Support

Sessions are primarily provided through 1:1 support, via telehealth or in person, while staying connected to your child’s everyday routines and real-life experiences.

Support may include a combination of:

• Direct 1:1 work with your child 
• Parent coaching and guidance 
• Real-life application within your routines when appropriate 

We may support moments such as:

• Play and interaction 
• Daily routines (mealtime, transitions, bedtime) 
• Emotional regulation as it arises 
• Community outings or real-life situations when needed 

You are supported throughout the process with guidance, modeling, and collaboration. At times, sessions may include direct 1:1 support with your child to focus on goals such as communication, play, flexibility, and emotional regulation.

These moments are intentional and always connected back to your child’s daily life and your overall goals.

Rooted Support blends evidence-based practices with a strong focus on connection, flexibility, and developmentally appropriate care. 

This includes:

• Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA): to understand behavior and build meaningful, functional skills
• Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT): to support emotional awareness, flexibility, and parent experience
• Naturalistic Developmental Behavioral Interventions (NDBI): to teach skills through play, interaction, and everyday experiences

Rooted Support includes both:

• Following your child’s lead 
• Creating meaningful and motivating learning opportunities 
• Supporting regulation before expectation 
• Building connection as the foundation for growth 
• Parent coaching within real-life moments 
• Intentional 1:1 support with your child when appropriate 

This balance allows for skill-building, modeling, and guided practice so strategies are both learned and applied in meaningful ways. This is not a one-size-fits-all model. Support is individualized and evolves with your child and family. Unlike traditional clinic-based models, support is connected to your daily routines, so strategies are practiced where they actually need to work.

Support is individualized based on your child’s needs, goals, and daily routines.

Areas of support may include:

• Communication and language development 
• Emotional regulation and coping skills 
• Behaviors that feel difficult or overwhelming (e.g., tantrums, rigidity, aggression) 
• Play and social engagement 
• Daily routines and transitions 
• Parent confidence and strategy use
