Virtual ABA for Busy Families: Convenient, Flexible Autism Care for Busy Lives
Why Busy Families Are Choosing Virtual ABA
Even a quick trip across town can eat up your entire afternoon. Add in traffic, parking nightmares, and trying to squeeze appointments into already tight schedules, and traditional therapy becomes another source of stress instead of support.
Here's what makes virtual ABA different:
Skip the Commute Completely Your child gets expert therapy without anyone having to leave the house. No more rushing through traffic or circling the block looking for parking.
Schedule on Your Terms Morning person? We can do 7 AM sessions. Night owl family? Evening appointments work too. Therapy happens when it works for your family, not just when the clinic has an opening.
Access the Best Clinicians You're not stuck with whoever happens to be in your neighborhood. Virtual ABA connects you with top BCBAs across your entire state.
Start Faster While families wait months for openings at local clinics, virtual ABA can get your child started in weeks, not months.
What Parents Are Saying
We hear from busy parents all the time:
"Between work and my daughter's activities, we just couldn't make those 3 PM appointments work anymore."
"We were on three different waitlists for over six months. Virtual ABA got us started in two weeks."
"I get back three hours of my week that I used to spend just driving to appointments. Now that's time I can actually spend with my kids."
These aren't just scheduling wins. They're life-changers for families who were struggling to balance everything.
How Virtual ABA Makes City Living Easier
Therapy That Fits Your Routine Sessions happen right at home, so you can say goodbye to the rush of getting everyone ready, loaded in the car, and out the door on time.
Less Stress for Everyone When parents aren't constantly stressed about logistics, they can focus on what really matters: supporting their child's growth.
Better Access to Specialists The best BCBA for your child might live an hour away. With virtual sessions, distance doesn't matter.
No Weather Worries Snowstorm? Surprise thunderstorm? Your child's therapy continues as scheduled because you're already home.
Real Support for Real Families
At Forta, we know that busy families need options that actually work. That's why we accept Medicaid in 19 states, including major cities like Los Angeles, Chicago, Boston, New York, Denver, and Austin.
We serve families in California, Colorado, District of Columbia, Delaware, Illinois, Kansas, Kentucky, Massachusetts, Maine, North Carolina, New Mexico, Ohio, Oregon, Rhode Island, Tennessee, Virginia, Vermont, Wisconsin, and Wyoming.
Our team handles the insurance paperwork so you can focus on your child, not bureaucracy.
What Virtual ABA Can Help With
Your child's virtual ABA sessions can work on all the same goals as in-person therapy:
- Building communication skills and expanding language
- Managing challenging behaviors in real-world settings
- Developing social skills and friendship abilities
- Teaching daily living skills like getting dressed or following routines
- Strengthening emotional regulation and coping strategies
The difference? These skills are practiced in the environment where your child actually lives, making them more likely to stick.
A Week in the Life: The Johnson Family
Meet Sarah and Mike Johnson from Denver. They both work full-time and have two kids, including 6-year-old Emma who's on the autism spectrum.
Monday, 7:00 AM: Sarah uses the morning routine strategies her BCBA taught her, helping Emma practice getting dressed independently. No session needed, just applying what they've learned.
Wednesday, 4:00 PM: Right after school, Emma's BCBA helps her practice conversation skills for an upcoming playdate.
Friday, 6:30 PM: After dinner, Sarah joins a parent coaching session to learn new strategies for helping Emma with transitions.
The Johnsons save four hours a week they used to spend driving to appointments. That's four more hours for family time, homework help, or just breathing.
You're Still the Expert on Your Child
Virtual doesn't mean distant. Parents stay involved in every step:
Regular Progress Reviews: You'll meet with your child's BCBA to discuss what's working and what needs adjustment.
Hands-On Coaching: Learn practical strategies you can use throughout the week, not just during sessions.
Flexible Planning: As your family's needs change, therapy can adapt too.
Why Waiting Doesn't Make Sense
In most cities, the waitlist for quality ABA therapy is 3 to 12 months long. That's a year of your child's development that you can't get back.
Every month matters when you're supporting a child's growth. Virtual ABA means you can start making progress now, not someday.
