We tried finding the right ABA therapy for months. True Progress took the time to understand our son instead of rushing into a treatment plan. His therapist makes every session feel natural, and we’re finally seeing progress at home.

ABA Therapy for Autism
Your Child Already Works Harder Than Most People Realize
You see it every day. The effort it takes to do things that come easily to other kids. The way they push through situations that overwhelm them. The small steps that are giant leaps.
True Progress Therapy is here to give children on the autism spectrum the tools to build on what they’re already doing, while respecting exactly who they are.
How to Get Started with ABA Therapy in Missouri
- Enrollment
You call or fill out the form. We verify your insurance, explain your coverage, and handle the paperwork.
- Assessment & Approval
One of our BCBAs meets with your family and gets to know your child. Then we build a therapy plan around them specifically and get it approved by your insurance.
- Therapy Begins
Your child starts working one-on-one with their therapist in your home or school. Your BCBA supervises, adjusts the plan as your child progresses, and keeps you in the loop every step of the way.

Questions We Hear From Missouri Parents
Will ABA Change Who My Child Is?
No. Your child’s personality, interests, and way of seeing the world—that all stays. We teach skills that help them express who they are more effectively, not become someone different.
How Will I Know It’s Working?
You’ll see it at home before you see it in our data. Your child asking for help instead of melting down. Bedtime is getting easier. Transitions without a fight. The changes show up in your daily life.
What If My Child Doesn’t Connect With Their Therapist?
We find a better match. We pair therapists with kids based on personality and interests, but if it’s not working, we switch. Your child should look forward to sessions, not dread them.
How Many Hours Per Week Will My Child Need?
It depends on your child. Most kids receive between 10 and 30 hours per week. Your BCBA will recommend a schedule after the assessment based on your child’s specific needs and goals.
How Quickly Can We Start?
Most families begin therapy within two to four weeks of their first call. We verify insurance upfront, schedule assessments quickly, and don’t drag out the process.
Do You Only Work With Young Children?
We typically serve children ages 2 through 12, but every situation is different. Contact us, and we’ll let you know if we’re a good fit for your child.
What’s the Difference Between a BCBA and an RBT?
A BCBA is a Board Certified Behavior Analyst—they assess your child, design the therapy plan, and supervise treatment. An RBT is a Registered Behavior Technician—they work directly with your child during sessions, implementing the plan.
Can I Be Involved in Sessions?
Yes. Parent involvement is part of how this works. You’ll learn strategies to reinforce your child’s progress throughout the day, not just during therapy hours.
What If My Child Already Receives Other Therapies?
That’s common. We coordinate with speech therapists, occupational therapists, and schools to make sure everyone’s aligned and working toward the same goals.
Will Insurance Cover This?
Most Missouri insurance plans are required to cover ABA therapy for autism. We handle the paperwork and prior authorizations so you don’t have to chase it down. We’ll verify your benefits before you commit to anything.
Is There a Waitlist?
It depends on your location and therapist availability. Most families start within two to four weeks, but we’ll give you an honest timeline upfront so you know what to expect.
What If We Need to Change Our Schedule?
Life happens. We work with families to adjust schedules when needed. Consistency matters for progress, but we’re not rigid about it.
Can Therapy Happen at My Child’s School?
Yes. We coordinate with schools across Missouri to provide therapy during the school day when it makes sense for your child. We work with teachers to make sure your child is supported in the classroom.
