Why Jersey City families choose True Progress Therapy
Finally, ABA therapy that works around your life
Our Board Certified Behavior Analysts and skilled therapists don’t just deliver evidence-based care—we design it around your child’s world.
Your Jersey City home becomes the classroom
Whether you’re in a PATH-adjacent apartment Downtown, a two-family in The Heights, or a house in Greenville, we bring therapy to you. No fighting for parking on Grove Street. No adding another commute to your already packed schedule. Your daily routines—breakfast before daycare, homework after school, weekend park trips—become opportunities for real growth.
Hablamos español, hindi, tagalog, at marami pang iba
Jersey City is one of the most diverse cities in America. Our multilingual therapists work with families in Spanish, Hindi, Tagalog, and other languages. We don’t just translate—we understand the cultural context of raising a child with autism in Jersey City’s immigrant communities.
We know Jersey City Public Schools
From PS 16 in The Heights to PS 38 in Journal Square, we work with JCPS schools across all wards. Our therapists coordinate with your child’s IEP team, show up at CST meetings, and make sure what happens in therapy supports what’s happening in the classroom.
Flexible scheduling for commuters and shift workers
Many Jersey City parents commute to Manhattan, work in healthcare at Jersey City Medical Center, or have retail jobs with changing schedules. We offer early morning, evening, and weekend sessions because your child’s progress can’t wait for a 9-to-5 you don’t have.
This isn’t about forcing your child to adapt to another clinic environment. This is about meeting them where they already are and helping them thrive right there.
Why your home is the perfect place for ABA therapy
What changes when therapy comes to Jersey City
You know your child better than anyone. You see how they’re calmer in their own bedroom than in a crowded waiting room. You notice they’re more communicative at the kitchen table than in an unfamiliar clinic. You understand that getting them on and off the PATH for therapy appointments is a meltdown waiting to happen.
That’s exactly what in-home ABA therapy solves.
You see exactly what’s working
You’re not wondering what happened in some closed therapy room. You watch the strategies in action. You learn what calms your child, what motivates them, what helps them communicate. You become part of the solution in real time.
Skills transfer to real life
We don’t teach your child to sit quietly in a clinic and hope it transfers to home. We teach them to manage morning routines before school. To handle transitions when plans change. To communicate their needs at the playground. To regulate emotions during everyday Jersey City life—crowded sidewalks, loud streets, busy parks.
Therapy adapts to your world
Jersey City families are juggling Manhattan commutes, multiple jobs, siblings in different schools, elderly parents to care for. We schedule around your reality because you’ve already adapted enough.
You’ve been managing this alone long enough. Now you have a team that comes to you, works with your schedule, and understands that the best therapy happens at your kitchen table—not in some clinic in the suburbs.

Our approach to ABA therapy
How we help your Jersey City child discover what they’re capable of
You’ve watched your child struggle to communicate what they need. You’ve seen them get frustrated when they can’t connect with other kids at the playground. You’ve wondered if they’ll ever be able to ride the Light Rail without a meltdown or handle a full day at school.
We see something different. We see a child who’s ready to surprise everyone—including themselves.
Here’s what changes with the right support:
Communication that works in Jersey City
Your child finds their voice—whether through words, signs, pictures, or AAC devices. They learn to ask for what they need at the bodega, communicate with teachers at school, tell you how they’re feeling when the PATH is too loud.
Social skills for diverse Jersey City
Playing with neighborhood kids at Hamilton Park. Participating in storytime at the Jersey City Free Public Library. Making friends in JCPS classrooms. Navigating Jersey City’s wonderfully diverse, bustling social environment.
Independence that builds confidence
Getting dressed for school. Making simple breakfast choices. Following routines without constant prompting. Walking to the park without holding your hand every second. Skills that make them feel capable and proud.
Behaviors that finally make sense
When challenging behaviors happen—meltdowns at the grocery store, aggression with siblings, refusal to transition—we figure out what your child is actually trying to communicate. Then we teach them better ways to get their needs met.
Emotional regulation for city life
Jersey City is loud, crowded, and unpredictable. Your child learns to recognize when they’re getting overwhelmed and what to do about it. They develop coping strategies they’ll use for life—on the PATH, at school, in crowds, everywhere.
The truth is, your child is already capable of so much. Our job isn’t to change who they are. Our job is to give them the tools to show Jersey City—and themselves—what they’re truly capable of.

Everyone is always supportive and helpful, you can tell they want everyone to succeed.
Jason Accordino
I'd called 3 other places before True Progress Therapy and got nowhere. These guys were AMAZING from the first call! No "we'll get back to you", they answered and actually helped right then. The intake lady was so nice and walked me through everything. I was blown away. Had our first session set up so fast!! Seriously wish I'd found them first. If you're stuck on waitlists, call them NOW. Highly recommend!
Tamika Riley
I just want to take a moment to share my experience with True Progress Therapy. I have three children receiving services with this company, all with unique needs. Since I had never received services for my twin 4 year olds, and 7 year-old before, we were unsure of what to expect. However, the BCBA, Michele Young, came out and did the assessment, and immediately made us feel comfortable. The treatment plans were individualized and aligned with our concerns, and their needs. The staff that were paired with my children as direct providers, all are amazing and a perfect fit.
Rachelli Oseroff
From day one, their team has shown an incredible level of professionalism, compassion, and dedication. The therapists are knowledgeable, patient, and truly invested in helping each child thrive. We've seen measurable progress—not just in behavior, but in communication and confidence as well.
