Do you offer ABA therapy in Toronto without a long waitlist?

Is Advance Therapy an OAP-approved provider in Toronto?
Yes. We are fully approved under the Ontario Autism Program (OAP). Toronto families can direct their OAP direct funding to Advance Therapy for in-home, daycare, or virtual sessions. We also prepare all assessment reports required for OAP applications.
What ages do you serve for ABA therapy in Toronto?
We serve children from 18 months through to 12 years old across Toronto. Early intervention programmes are most intensive for ages two to six — the highest-impact developmental window. School-age programmes focus on social skills, communication, and community independence.
Can a therapist come to my child's Toronto daycare or school?
Yes. Our ABA therapy at daycare service places a certified therapist directly in your child's Toronto daycare or JK setting during regular hours. We coordinate with daycare staff and TDSB or TCDSB educators to ensure consistent support across all environments.
What makes ABA therapy different from other autism therapy in Toronto?
ABA is the most extensively researched autism intervention with decades of peer-reviewed evidence. Unlike other approaches, ABA is data-driven: our certified therapists set measurable goals, track progress every session, and adjust the programme based on real outcomes. Our early intervention and school-age programmes combine structured skill-building with natural, play-based teaching.
