whydirt posted:Our 2 1/2yo is still 100% non-verbal and it seems like the earliest openings for ABA therapy in the area aren't for another couple months. He would be getting early intervention services from school, but lol COVID means we just get an hour of video call coaching. Also, lol at the autism books for parents suggesting we use our network of friends and family to get relief right now. cinnamon rollout posted:Good luck, we have a non verbal three year old and so far we have had the only ABA provider in the area tell us they don't feel like taking our insurance because apparently BCBS federal is too much of a hassle to process, we filed a complaint with our insurance for all the use that is, and we are currently fighting with the school system to get our son a whole hour of speech therapy, while they repeatedly try to blow us off. Please be aware that ABA therapy is enormously controversial in the autistic community. There are many people who feel they were abused and traumatized by their experiences with ABA. Even some former ABA practitioners have repudiated it. I would strongly recommend you research ABA very thoroughly before enrolling a child in it.
