About Skybound Therapy
We’re a small, pre-launch, mission-driven team focused on improving outcomes for children with autism. Many of the families we serve are supported through Medicaid. At Skybound Therapy, we’re building a practice for kids with Autism that have high levels of problem behaviors as well as mental health and psychiatric concerns. We’re hoping to serve the kids who often don’t make progress in other environments with an integrated model including ABA, psychiatry, family support, ST and OT.
