Why Burke Families Choose Big Heart
Consistent. Practical. Supportive.
-
Home-Based Therapy That Fits Daily Life Sessions happen during your family's real routines: breakfast, homework, playtime, bedtime. That is where skills are needed, so that is where we teach them, with a consistent RBT running sessions and a BCBA supervising every plan.
-
Structured Plans With Ongoing Monitoring Therapy plans are built around measurable goals and continuous data tracking. The supervising BCBA reviews progress constantly and adjusts the plan as your child grows, so goals stay appropriate instead of stale.
-
Local Knowledge That Helps Burke Lake Park sits at the community's edge with its miniature train, carousel, and a 4.7-mile lake trail, and the Park Authority's Access and Inclusion office (703-324-8727) runs adapted programs and sensory-friendly supports countywide. Good raw material for family outings that actually work.
Why In-Home ABA Therapy Matters in Burke
- Skills stick where they're learned. A skill practiced in your own kitchen carries into daily life far better than one practiced across town. Your BCBA sees the real routine, including the hard moments, which is what makes a plan work outside the session.
- Two secondary pyramids, one plan. Burke splits between the Lake Braddock and Robinson secondary school pyramids, both serving grades 7 through 12. Whichever your address feeds, your BCBA can attend IEP meetings with you and share session data with the school team.
- Family time stays on the calendar. In-home sessions mean no clinic commute, and places like Burke Lake Park and the South Run RECenter stay within easy reach for the time you get back.
