How ABA Therapy Works at Cross River Therapy
From enrollment through insurance, we make each step clear and easy for your family.
Step 1: Request Services
Complete the Enroll Now form on our website and one of our intake specialists will contact you shortly to gather the necessary information and begin the onboarding process. We make the first step as easy as possible.
Step 2: Getting to Know Your Child
One of our Board Certified Behavior Analysts conducts an initial assessment to understand your child's individual needs, strengths, and areas for growth. This assessment forms the foundation of a personalized plan designed specifically for your child, not a template applied to every case.
Step 3: Recommendations and Next Steps
Your BCBA reviews the assessment findings, establishes personalized goals, and assembles a therapy team tailored to your child's needs. Cross River Therapy handles all insurance filing so you can focus on what matters: your child's progress.

What is ABA therapy?
Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy is the most extensively researched and evidence-based intervention available for children with autism spectrum disorder. It uses our understanding of how behavior and learning work to build meaningful skills including communication, social interaction, daily living, and emotional regulation. ABA therapy is individualized to each child and delivered using positive reinforcement techniques.
How much does ABA therapy cost in Fort Collins?
The cost of ABA therapy in Fort Collins depends on your insurance coverage, the intensity of services, and your child's individual program. Most families with commercial insurance or Colorado Medicaid pay little to nothing out of pocket, as ABA therapy is a required covered benefit under both. Cross River Therapy verifies your specific benefits before therapy begins so you know exactly what to expect. Contact us for a free quote.
