In-Home ABA Therapy Services in New Mexico
ABA therapy for children with autism, planned by a BCBA and done in your home.
What is ABA Therapy?
Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) is one of the most studied therapies for children with autism. It uses what we know about how children learn to teach everyday skills and to work on behaviors that get in the way of daily life.
At PlayPath ABA, a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) designs and supervises each program. A trained Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) works with your child, and the BCBA adjusts the plan based on session data.
Why Families Across New Mexico Choose In-Home ABA
At home, your child learns in the place they already spend their day, with the people they spend it with.
Practice Where It Happens
Skills are taught in your kitchen, bathroom and living room, where your child will use them.
Family Involvement
Parents, siblings and caregivers can join in, and parent training is part of the plan.
Convenient & Comfortable
No commute, no waiting rooms. Therapy fits your schedule in a place your child already feels safe.
Built Around Your Day
We work on the parts of the day that are hard for your family, like mealtimes, transitions, bedtime and outings.
What We Target
Every program is different. These are the areas our BCBAs work on most.
Communication & Language
Asking for things, understanding others and back-and-forth conversation, with words, signs, pictures or a device.
Social Skills
Taking turns, playing with siblings and other kids, and reading social cues.
Adaptive Daily Living
Getting dressed, brushing teeth, mealtimes, toileting and staying safe out in the community.
Academic & Pre-Academic Skills
Paying attention, copying others, following directions and early academics to help get ready for school.
Behavior Reduction
We figure out why a behavior is happening and teach your child a better way to get the same need met.
Parent & Caregiver Training
You learn the same strategies your child’s team uses, so you can use them at home and out in the community. Learn how parent training works.
Not diagnosed yet?
Start with a free autism screening by phone. If it shows signs of autism, we schedule a full evaluation with our licensed partner clinician and get ABA ready, so care can start when the diagnosis comes.

In-Home ABA: Common Questions
Do you offer in-home ABA therapy near me?
If you live in or near Albuquerque, Rio Rancho, Santa Fe or Las Cruces, yes. Our therapists come to your home, and sessions can extend into the community. If you live elsewhere in New Mexico, call (505) 481-7105 and we will confirm whether we can reach you.
Is in-home ABA as effective as clinic-based ABA?
Both can work well. What matters most is a good program and steady supervision. At home, your child practices skills where they use them, and you can join in. Every program is designed and supervised by a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA).
What does an in-home ABA session look like?
A trained Registered Behavior Technician works with your child at home using play, daily routines and your child’s interests. Goals might include asking for things, following routines, playing with siblings, dressing or handling transitions. A BCBA checks in regularly, and parents learn the same strategies.
Do you work with toddlers and young children?
Yes. We work with toddlers, preschoolers and school-age children. New Mexico Medicaid and Turquoise Care can cover some at-risk toddlers between 12 and 36 months, even before a formal diagnosis.
How many hours of ABA will my child need?
It depends on your child’s needs and goals. After the assessment, the BCBA recommends a number of weekly hours and explains why. Insurance approves hours based on that plan, and we review them with you regularly.
