About Us | Autism F.I.R.S.T. | Therapy & Service in Northern, VA

What We Do

Our collaborative approach coordinates ABA, speech, OT and PT services under one roof – for more effective care of the children and young adults we treat and for the convenience of their families. We extend our collaboration by working with other professionals on the support team such as teachers and school therapists.

Through our relational autism care, we surround each family in a full circle of support through advocacy, parent counseling, sibling therapy and support groups.

What We Stand For

Vision

Our vision is to positively impact our communities and the families we serve through our collaborative, relational autism care model. We envision individuals with autism gaining independence while succeeding at everyday tasks and their families enjoying greater peace and happiness.
