Early
Intervention


Vista’s Early Intervention program delivers Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy using the Early Start Denver Model (ESDM)—an evidence-based, play-based early intervention approach for young children diagnosed with autism. Through naturalistic learning opportunities embedded in daily routines and play, children build communication, social, adaptive, and school readiness skills with confidence. Services begin as early as 12 months and continue up to age 7 or until kindergarten entry.

A play-based aba approach

ABA therapy is a research-proven early intervention approach that helps children with autism engage in everyday activities and relationships. Vista’s Early Intervention program delivers a naturalistic, play-based ABA model grounded in ESDM to teach meaningful skills through daily interactions, play, and routines. This approach supports growth in communication, social engagement, play skills, and adaptive behavior.

Progress guided by
behavior experts

Each child’s progress is guided by a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) experienced in evidence-based early intervention practices, including ESDM. Our BCBAs work closely with Registered Behavior Technicians to implement, assess, and adjust personalized strategies. Vista’s Early Intervention program provides individualized 1:1 support while also incorporating intentional small-group learning experiences to promote peer interaction and skill generalization.

Building skills for
a bright future

Through structured play, daily routines, and individualized support, our Registered Behavior Technicians help children practice meaningful skills in a warm, classroom-like setting with both indoor and outdoor learning spaces. Guided by each child’s personalized treatment plan and grounded in ESDM, we focus on steady, measurable progress that prepares children for greater independence and success at home, in school, and in the community.

Areas of growth may include:

Parent Involvement

We believe children make the greatest progress when families and clinicians work together. We partner closely with parents and caregivers through regular communication, coaching, and shared goal setting so learning continues beyond the clinic and into everyday life.

  • Parent coaching and training
    Practical strategies to support your child’s growth at home

  • Ongoing communication
    Regular updates and access to progress information

  • Shared goal setting
    Participation in treatment planning and progress reviews

Our program also requires families to provide transportation for their child to and from the clinic each day.
