At A and J Behavioral Health,

We Believe:

  • Every child is unique, and therefore the strategies we use to help each child and their family is individualized.
  • Learning is fun and should not feel like work at a young age! We make every child feel special as they are learning and prospering with the family.
  • Skills taught must be functional for the child and family.
  • Teaching in the child’s natural environment with the family as a team promotes generalization (true learning) for the child and the family.
  • AJB works with children of all ages and conducts psychological evaluations for diagnosis, if the parent requests. At AJB we believe learning is limitless like your child.

What Our Clients Are Saying

A and J Behavioral Health was created to serve the families that need the most help.
  • I took my son in for an evaluation based on the recommendation of his teacher. We met with the doctor who inquired about the behaviors we and his teacher had been noticing. After meeting with him, a sweet woman came to help put together what they call a treatment plan. Overall, the evaluation gave me a sense of relief, knowing my son was going to get help. We recently were assigned a teacher who comes 2-3 times a week. She works directly with my son. And he loves her! We are thinking of adding a weekend date, as we are already seeing the benefits of this therapy. Making the choice to get help and see this agency was the best thing I think I could have done for my little guy. Looking forward to continuing!

    My wife and I were going from pediatrician to neurologist to psychologist and we had no answers on how to help our youngest daughter...Once we called A and J we realized they were pediatric child specialists that could help us. Pediatricians are only interested in passing you on to a neurologist who truly doesn’t know anything about mental health. They wanted to put our daughter on medication and we couldn’t figure out why since she was not aggressive. We refused to put her on medication since she didn’t need it...Since starting with A and J a couple of months ago we have seen a dramatic improvement. The Senior staff is helping educate and train us as well to help her on a daily basis. She is starting to interact more and seems happier. Thank you so much :))

    Recently my insurance company was attacking A and J Behavioral. My child has received flawless services from A and J for over 2 years and my child Ava has been massively improving. At 5 years old she is finally potty trained and can answer questions. Before A and J Ava didn’t speak at all. So when my insurance company was attacking A and J for several years and chased them out of network I felt horrible for them since they are probably not going to be paid over a million dollars because of my insurance company. All the employees at A and J Behavioral walked me through the process of using them as an out of network provider. Thank goodness I still have my therapist from A and J Behavioral!!

  • As a mother of a child that had fairly obvious issues to me but yet was not obvious to many health practitioners before I came to A and J Behavioral Health. A and J recognized the issues and formulated a detailed plan to help. We have been with A and J for only a few months, but my daughter has made great progress! Thank you for listening and helping!

    I don’t know what to say. The bcba and therapist taught my child how to maintain eye contact and respond to her name. I couldn’t be more thrilled. They are the best!:)))

    The therapists have been so professional and caring. This has been a difficult time for me and my family. In 2013 my child was diagnosed with a disability and everyone at A and J has helped us cope and help Mylie develop social skills. I can’t help but say the greatest things about A and J! They are the best!

  • I can't say enough about the caring staff. A year ago my son was not able to attend school because he was very disruptive and now he is a model student. Thank you to all at A and J Behavioral Health!!

    What a relief it was to find A & J after trying 2 other agencies that gave us the runaround. Services started within a month and we love our therapist! So grateful!!
    Amanda McSweeney
    Very thankful to have found A & J. They worked with us through COVID with no delays or issues. My daughter has shown so much improvement since we started services last year.

  • The staff from the first phone call to the assessment to handling the health insurance was flawless. They were so easy and nice to work with. My child is happy to see the therapist everyday and she is improving nicely. The staff from the first phone call to the assessment to handling the health insurance was flawless.

    What a great experience we had during a stressful time for us. The consult was thorough - we discussed our concerns, and what we wanted to work on. We were assigned a therapist, a very sweet young lady who has worked wonders! The entire process went very smooth. I wish I knew insurance covered these services sooner!!

    I have 2 twin boys who have had behavioral issues every since they were about 1 years old. The caring staff took me in right away and took whatever insurance I had. The staff was compassionate and even though I cried because I was so tired and my wife and I were were anxious at the first meeting the staff made me feel at home. I would recommend them to anyone that has children that are having problems in school and everywhere. Thank you!

  • The staff was very warm to my family and during a difficult time when one of our boys needed therapy. Jon my oldest was ripping the family apart. However, after meeting with A and J Behavioral Healths head clinician and instituting their treatment plan within a few days Jon was doing much better. I would recommend them to any family that is having issues with their children with social anxiety, ADHD, autism spectrum disorders, or any behavioral issue your child has

    I was recommended to try behavioral therapy through my daughter's neurologist. I got A & J's number through my insurance company, so I decided to give it a try. First, we went to the office to meet with A & J. Everyone was extremely friendly and helpful. Within a week or so after that, services began at our home. The therapist is kind and warm, and my daughter opened up to her immediately. She comes several times a week, and has been working with my daughter on various goals designed by the supervisor. Since beginning about 5 months ago, i have seen improvements with my daughter's behaviors. I knew it wouldn't be a "quick fix", but i am confident that she will continue to improve with the help of this agency.

    My dealings with this place have been very successful. I was looking for help with my daughter and they came the rescue. Everyone was so kind and caring to me and my family. Our daughter has made improvements since she started working with a therapist. I would highly recommend working with them.
