Tennessee

Our Nashville office is located just of I-65 North off of Trousdale and Harding Rd. in South Nashville. We provide in home, clinical and community based ABA. We use a team approach to promote generalization of skills, particularly across a variety of instructors. We are in network with TennCare Select and TriCare and we work with a variety of other insurances, including Aetna, United and Humana.

A Note from our Director:

I moved "home" to Nashville in 2003 after my son was born. I am a third generation native Nashvillian and love my home town. Go Titans!

I had moved to Florida for college and it was there that I began working with children with Autism. The services in Florida are cutting edge and I was surprised to see that Nashville, being a larger city, did not offer the same level of care to children with Autism that the small town in Florida I had lived in did. After a year and a half of frustration with the lack of services, I opened ABC Services. We have primarily worked solely by word of mouth referrals, and have been blessed to have worked with so many wonderful families. It is extremely important to me that my staff keep up to date in changes in our field in order to continue to provide the most scientifically proven and sound methods for treating Autism. All staff are either Board Certified Behavior Analysts or Associate Behavior Analysts, or are somewhere in the process of working towards certification. This is extremely important to me and the success we have with our children. Every program is managed and directed by a BCBA, making most programs eligible to be covered by most insurance companies. Since all other staff members are somewhere in the certification process, that means that your child's therapists will have education and experience past most other high school level paraprofessionals. I think that our work and dedication to the Autism Community and Applied Behavior Analysis field has spoken well for itself. I hope that you'll stop in to look at our classroom or schedule a meeting in person so we can show you our facility and answer any questions you may have. We look forward to working with you and making a difference in your family's life.

Sincerely,

Jane Barnes
