Scope first, because this page earns trust by its edges: MindForge does not provide ABA, behavioral therapy, or educational intervention — those remain the standard-of-care core [1], delivered by their own specialists. What we provide is the motor and regulation layer that's often nobody's job: coordination and motor-skill training, balance and vestibular work (measurably different in many autistic kids), regulation-supportive conditioning, and sleep/metabolic workup where it loads daily life (FM lane). Family-integrated, sensory-respectful pacing throughout. Evaluation: Discovery Day — proxy-supported intake, motor/balance/oculomotor testing as tolerated, sensory-informed scheduling; parents in every step. Findings letter written to be useful to your existing team. Programs: goal-directed blocks (named family goals — same promise architecture as our CP page: no normalization language, ever); pricing on your free 15-minute call + GFE.

MindForge doesn't bill insurance — by design. Direct-pay is what makes an individualized, intensive program possible rather than care shaped by billing codes. HSA/FSA and financing options exist, and a written Good Faith Estimate precedes any commitment.
Frequently asked questions
Is this ABA or a replacement for it?
Neither — behavioral and educational care stays with its specialists; we add the motor-regulation layer, coordinated.
Will this make my child "less autistic"?
That's not a goal we'd ever write — named functional goals, family-defined, measured against baseline, is what we do.
What about sensory accommodations?
Built in — pacing, environment, and scheduling adapt to your child, not the reverse.
Do you take insurance?
We're direct-pay, with superbills provided — see ways to pay.
