Why Olive Branch ABA
What Makes Olive Branch Different
Privately owned, woman-owned, and BCBA-owned. We are not a national franchise. Olive Branch was built by a Board Certified Behavior Analyst who believes every child deserves a plan built just for them, not a template copied from the last file on the shelf.
Every Plan Is Individualized
No templates, no copy-paste programs. Every goal is written by your BCBA for your child specifically, and adjusted as your family's priorities change.
Therapy In Your Home
Sessions happen where your child is most comfortable and where the skills actually need to transfer: at home. We serve Austin and surrounding areas, and we will work with you on logistics if you are a little outside the city.
A Clinical Care Coordinator Who Knows Your Child
Every family is assigned a Clinical Care Coordinator who works alongside your BCBA and RBT. Caseloads stay small — 5 to 8 families per team — so there's always someone who knows your child's name, your goals, and where things stand. No call centers, no ticket queues.
Privately Owned, Woman-Owned, BCBA-Owned
We are not a franchise or a private-equity rollup. Olive Branch is a local, independent practice founded and owned by a BCBA whose priority is quality care, not quarterly margins.
We Handle the Insurance Paperwork
Verification, pre-authorization, and claims are handled by our team. We verify your benefits within 48 hours and walk you through exactly what is covered before you commit to anything.
No Waitlist. Start in Weeks, Not Months.
Most Austin providers have 3 to 12 month waitlists. We don't. Families who contact us today are typically assessed within 1 week, with therapy starting 2 to 4 weeks after paperwork is signed.
The Process

Why Families Choose Olive Branch
Care You Can See, Feel, and Celebrate
People choose Olive Branch ABA because it is privately owned by a woman BCBA who blends expert, highly individualized care with a deeply supportive, family-first approach. Our goal is meaningful progress your family can see, feel, and celebrate every step of the way.
Quality Care Over Scale
We are intentionally small. That is what allows us to know every child by name and tailor every program to them, instead of processing families through a system built for volume.
Woman-Owned. BCBA-Owned.
Olive Branch was founded by a Board Certified Behavior Analyst who built this practice around the kind of care she wanted every child to receive. No investors, no corporate playbook, no pressure to cut corners.
Family-First, Every Session
Parent coaching and caregiver training are part of every program from day one. You are a partner in your child's progress, not an observer waiting for a report.

Frequently Asked Questions
Questions We Hear from
Austin Families
Texas law requires most major insurance plans to cover ABA therapy for children with autism. We currently accept Aetna, Blue Cross Blue Shield of Texas, Ambetter (Superior HealthPlan), Texas Medicaid, and other major Texas insurances. If you have a different plan, give us a call and we will look into it with you. Our team verifies your specific benefits within 48 hours, at no charge, so you have a clear picture before any decisions are made.
No waitlist. While many ABA providers in Austin have waitlists ranging from 3 to 12 months, we are currently accepting new families with no waitlist. Assessments are typically scheduled within 1 week of your free consultation, and therapy begins 2 to 4 weeks after paperwork is signed, once insurance authorization is complete.
We serve children ages 2 through 18, the full range covered by insurance for ABA therapy. Whether your child is just starting on their journey or already in school, our BCBAs design a program that meets them where they are.
It is a no-pressure conversation with a client advocate, typically 20 to 30 minutes, by phone or video. They walk you through how our services work, answer every question you have about ABA, and explain what to expect. Once you decide to move forward and sign the paperwork, we schedule your child's assessment, usually within the same week.
Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) is a scientifically validated approach that helps children with autism build communication, social, daily living, and independence skills. It identifies what is meaningful for your child and teaches those skills in structured, measurable ways, with data-tracked progress so we can continuously refine our approach. ABA has more peer-reviewed research behind it than any other autism therapy and is recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics.
Sessions are designed around your child's individual plan and take place in your home, where your child is most comfortable and where new skills actually need to transfer. A Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) works one-on-one with your child using a blend of structured activities and natural, play-based learning to build targeted skills. Sessions typically run 2 to 4 hours, with frequency set by your child's program and insurance authorization. Your BCBA supervises the plan throughout and adjusts it as your child progresses.
Family involvement is central to everything we do. Parent coaching and caregiver training are built into every program, giving you the strategies and confidence to support your child's growth between sessions. We provide regular progress updates and direct access to your BCBA, and we actively seek your input when setting and adjusting goals. You are a partner in your child's progress, not just an observer.
