    Wings To Fly Therapy Center has been an awesome experience for us. We've been working with Denise…read morethe OT for 2 years now and most recently Kate the SLP. I could not be more pleased with the attention to detail of the providers, feedback to me the parent after each visit, and the progress that my kids have made. Kate is working RPM in conjunction with a home program for one of my boys and we are amazed each week by what he knows and most importantly, that he can now have a way to show us. Denise maintains phenomenal instructional control and works specifics for fine motor improvement, spacial awareness, hand eye coordination etc. I also love that she will try new things to elicit a new response to similar stimuli. She's always thinking of new ways to achieve results. I find the therapists to be "real people", knowledgeable in their trade, professional, and loving towards kids. The atmosphere is another plus. It's a welcoming Center with a waiting room that would put other center's to shame. There are tables to work at your computer, things to keep your other kids occupied and there is also a huge play room with ball pit, trampoline and swings available. The owner knows the world well and lives it daily. That is why she makes every effort to make the experience a great one for not only the kids, yet the families and caregivers who are present also. It's clean, free parking and right off 28 and 66. For us, it's an A+. I am available to chat with anyone who wants more detail from a parent's perspective. If you ask the owner, she can pass on your contact details to me. I'm in there at least once per week!

    I started my son here in the Winter of 2019. We were unsatisfied with the preschool program that he…read morewas in so we looked around to see if there was a place that would offer ABA therapy and be full-time as his preschool was part-time and often didn't have class due to administrative days and what not which was really frustrating. There aren't that many ABA centers that provide full day services and when I visited some of them they looked so cold and clinical. When I visited Ally I got a better, more personalized feeling since it was more open and you would see kids playing. They have great communication and I can always speak to the BCBA when I need to and the teachers are great. Additionally, when most preschools/day care centers were closed early on and often stayed closed in the pandemic, they were only briefly closed and were able to go back to providing in-home services which was great since as we all know that the pandemic has had a negative impact on kids with ASD due to lack of available/in person services. They have also been taking precautions during the Pandemic which is great. Although my son got off to a rocky start due to the new environment and change in schedule (to be expected with a kid with ASD), with each day we saw improvement. Over the past two years he has been at the center, he has become a more social, active, talkative little boy. We were sad to leave this past fall because we had such a great experience, but he has been thriving in kindergarten due to the foundation that was built at Ally. All in all this is a great place and if you're looking for quality ABA center, Ally Behavior Centers is the way to go.

Every client is with us…read morefrom 9 am to 5 pm, Monday through Friday in order to maximize the number of therapy hours proven to yield the most progress. Access to services beyond early intervention ABA therapy is readily available, such as speech therapy, occupational therapy, and psychological support. Our centers are lively with a variety of structured, natural, and preschool-like environments that fully support and encourage each client to grow. Every child is paired with a team of 1:1 therapists who they rotate through, allowing them to learn from different individuals but also maintain consistency in relationships.

    As a parent, choosing ABA therapy for your child is not a small decision. It feels emotional,…read moreoverwhelming, and honestly a little scary. From our very first interaction, MeBe made us feel supported instead of pressured. What stood out immediately was how much time they took to truly get to know our child -- not just the diagnosis, but their personality, strengths, and what motivates them. The BCBAs build real relationships with families. Communication has been clear and consistent, and I've never felt left out of the process. I always know what we're working on and why. The therapists are warm, patient, and genuinely excited about the progress they see. Sessions feel structured and purposeful, but still playful and engaging. My child looks forward to going -- and that alone says so much. Progress hasn't been overnight (and no one promised that), but it has been steady and meaningful. We're seeing skills carry over into home and school in ways that truly matter for our family. If you're a parent trying to figure out next steps, I can say this: MeBe leads with relationships first. And that has made all the difference for us.

We have immediate openings for all three services and can accommodate your family’s needs through clinic-based, in-home, or telehealth options.

    Navigating the school system as a parent of a neurodivergent child can feel like an uphill battle…read moreagainst a framework that simply wasn't built to support or accommodate them. Working with Meghan made a world of difference. She has an exceptional ability to cut through the bureaucracy, advocate fiercely, and manage a complicated, unsupportive system with incredible patience and skill. Meghan didn't just understand the administrative hurdles, she knew exactly how to advocate for my child's specific needs, ensuring they weren't overlooked or pushed aside. Her guidance, expertise, and relentless support brought clarity and immense relief during a stressful process. If you are struggling to get proper accommodations or support from the school system, I cannot recommend Autism Behavioral Solutions and Meghan highly enough!

I searched for local therapist and came across Meghan. She was a one man shop and the time but immediately made me and my son feel like a priority. She came to my house to meet us and I fell in love. She knew just what to say to him, how to get and keep his attention and more importantly taught me and my family. After working with my baby for a few years he was able to make eye contact, speaks clearl and has lost many of his stemming behaviors. He is currently a Junior in high school and I'm still in close contact with her and using the tools she armed me and my family with. With her guidance and experience my son has gone from an IEP to a "when in need" 504. I owe her more than I can ever repay her. She is forever a part of my family.

    I went into my Zoom appointment with Dr. Sumner feeling nervous, which honestly was expected since…read moreanxiety was the very reason I was seeking help. That said, I was not terribly anxious because I had already had such a wonderful, warm, and reassuring intake call with her assistant Sarah, who was kind, patient, and thorough. Even so, I had never met Dr. Sumner before, and with my anxiety being as high as it was, I felt that familiar edge of fear creep in. Within just minutes of speaking with Dr. Sumner, that fear completely melted away. Her presence was calm, grounded, and deeply compassionate, and I immediately felt safe. She took the time to truly listen, not just to my symptoms, but to my story. She gently and clearly explained that the anxiety I was experiencing was a very normal response to the amount of stress I had been under. That alone brought such relief. What truly stood out to me was when she explained how anxiety often feeds on itself, how we become anxious about having anxiety, which only intensifies it. That insight hit home so deeply. I had experienced a difficult bout of anxiety back in 2019, and having it return stirred up so many old, painful memories. Dr. Sumner understood this immediately and addressed it with such wisdom and kindness that I felt seen and understood rather than judged or rushed. She also quickly picked up on the fact that I am very hesitant about medication and strongly prefer natural approaches. Instead of dismissing that, she respected it fully. Learning that Dr. Sumner is also an herbologist spoke straight to my heart. It meant everything to be working with someone who honors both mental health and natural healing. Her approach felt balanced, thoughtful, and deeply humane. By the end of our call, I felt something I had not felt in a long time, peace. I could breathe again. I felt hopeful. I even felt excited about my life moving forward. That shift alone was priceless. Dr. Sumner is thoughtful, caring, gentle, brilliant, and genuinely kind. She has a rare ability to calm, reassure, and empower all at the same time. I am beyond grateful for her care and cannot recommend her highly enough to anyone who is struggling with anxiety and looking for a compassionate, whole person approach.
