ABA therapy is one of the most effective treatments for children with autism, but families often wonder about the cost when paying out of pocket. The price can vary depending on location, provider, and the number of therapy hours needed. On average, ABA therapy sessions range from $120 to $200 per hour, and comprehensive programs may add up to several thousand dollars per month.
Because ABA therapy is highly individualized, the total expense depends on your child’s treatment plan. Some children may need 10 hours per week, while others benefit from 30 or more. Without insurance coverage, these costs can feel overwhelming. However, many providers, including Little Champs ABA, work with families to explore financial options, sliding scales, or partial coverage through state programs.
Understanding the potential out‑of‑pocket expenses is the first step toward planning for your child’s care. While the investment is significant, ABA therapy can make a lasting difference in communication, behavior, and independence.
At Little Champs ABA, we help families navigate costs and find solutions. We also provide high-quality, in-home ABA therapy in Utah and Colorado.
