When ABA Hasn’t Felt Right: Finding Trust and Life-Changing Outcomes at Orchid Academy
A Note from Dr. Autumn Flick
Sometimes families come to us right after receiving a diagnosis. But many times, parents arrive after trying multiple strategies or even other ABA clinics, and not always with the best experiences. At Orchid, we’ve helped countless families understand the true benefits of services and learn to trust our team.
We know it’s a difficult step to take, but we are deeply grateful for the hundreds of parents who have placed their trust in us over the years, and for the many families whose children have transitioned to public or private school settings. Your trust means everything to us!
Acknowledgement + Reassurance
Parents who are seeking autism support often carry mixed emotions: hope for their child, fear of the unknown, and sometimes even hurt from past experiences. At Orchid Academy, we want you to know: we see you, we hear you, and we’re here to partner with you.
Our Philosophy: Compassionate, Trauma-Informed Care
Many families worry that ABA is “one-size-fits-all.” That is not the Orchid way.
Our therapy is trauma-informed, ensuring every interaction respects your child’s dignity.
We prioritize compassionate care, meeting each learner where they are rather than forcing compliance.
We believe in celebrating every victory, no matter how small, while never losing sight of long-term life-changing outcomes.
Why Personalization Matters
No two children with autism are alike. That’s why we never take a cookie-cutter approach.
Some children thrive with in-clinic support.
Others need us in-home or in-school, where they feel most comfortable.
Many benefit from a mix of environments — and we adjust our care to what works best for your family.
Our Multidisciplinary Strategy
We don’t just provide ABA in isolation. We integrate supports that matter:
Communication (verbal, PECS, AAC, or Proloquo2Go).
Social interaction (learning to connect with peers and siblings).
Independence skills (from zipping coats to navigating routines).
Collaboration with schools, teachers, and other professionals so your child’s progress is seamless.
What Families Can Expect
Our process is simple, transparent, and supportive:
Free Consultation – Tell us your story, your goals, and your challenges.
Personalized Plan – We design goals that matter for your child’s quality of life.
Compassionate Therapy – We provide therapy where it’s most effective for your family.
Ongoing Communication – Families are partners in every decision.
The Orchid Promise
We know trust has to be earned. That’s why we make these commitments to every family:
We will treat your child with respect, compassion, and care.
We will provide therapy that is effective and ethical.
We will partner with you — because parents are the most important part of a child’s team.
