BehavioTech provides in-home ABA therapy for children with autism across Laguna Beach. Our programs are designed and supervised by Board Certified Behavior Analysts, and the goals come from your family rather than a standard curriculum: communicating, handling transitions, sleeping, eating, and getting through the parts of the day that are currently hard. Our main office is in Anaheim, with a second office in Irvine, so Laguna Beach is a short drive for our team.
Therapy happens in your home, which removes the oldest problem in this field: a child who can do something perfectly in a therapy room and not at home. If the skill is needed at bath time, we teach it at bath time.
We work with families across Laguna Beach, including Laguna Village, Top of the World, Three Arch Bay, and North Laguna. That covers ZIP code 92651. If you are just outside those, call anyway, because our service area is wider than any list.
Sessions are delivered by trained behavior technicians and supervised by Board Certified Behavior Analysts. We also coach you directly, because the hours you spend with your child far outnumber the hours we do, and that is where lasting progress comes from.
Families in Laguna Beach are typically served by Laguna Beach Unified School District. That is the district to write to when you request a special education evaluation.
School support and ABA therapy are separate systems, and you are entitled to both at the same time. Your district provides special education through an IEP. Your health plan covers ABA. One does not replace the other.
With your written consent we share goals and progress data with your school team, and we can take part in IEP meetings. See our guide to IEPs in California.
Yes. BehavioTech provides in-home and community-based ABA therapy to families throughout Laguna Beach and the surrounding area. Sessions are delivered by trained behavior technicians and supervised by Board Certified Behavior Analysts. Telehealth is available if it suits your family better.
In most cases yes. California law requires state regulated health plans to cover behavioral health treatment for children with an autism diagnosis. We are in network with Anthem Blue Cross and Aetna, and we welcome private pay families. We check your benefits and handle the authorization paperwork for you rather than leaving it on your plate.
We do not run a waitlist, which is unusual in this area and deliberate. Once your diagnosis and physician referral are in place, the timeline is driven by insurance authorization rather than by our capacity. Call us and we will give you a realistic start date on the first conversation.

Yes, in-home is our main model. We work with families across Laguna Beach, including Laguna Village, Top of the World, Three Arch Bay, and North Laguna. That covers ZIP code 92651. If you are just outside those, call anyway, because our service area is wider than any list. Working in your home means we teach skills where they are actually needed, which is why they tend to stick rather than staying stuck in a therapy room.
The Regional Center of Orange County coordinates services for people with developmental disabilities, including early intervention for children under three, respite, and service coordination. There is no charge for intake. Your school district provides special education from age three. Many families use all three, since insurance funded ABA, regional center services, and school support are independent of one another.
Tell us about your child and we will reach out within 1 to 2 business days. Free, confidential, and no obligation. Call (657) 678-9020 or start an intake.
