Therapy Services · Dubai & Abu Dhabi

Therapy that's clinically led

ABA (BCBA-supervised), speech & language therapy, occupational therapy and early intervention — assessed first, delivered at home, school, or a centre.

What we offer

Four therapy disciplines, one clinical team.

ABA therapy

Structured behavioural support designed and supervised by a BCBA, reviewed against measurable goals.

Speech & language therapy

Play-based communication therapy for toddlers through school-age children.

Occupational therapy

Sensory and motor-skill support that builds daily-living independence.

Early intervention

Therapy for very young children, focused on developmental milestones and family coaching.

What supervision looks like

A named clinician, not a rotating roster.

  • Every therapy plan is designed by a licensed clinician, not assigned generically
  • Progress is documented and reviewed on a regular schedule
  • Families see approved session updates through the family portal
  • Insurance and cost guidance provided before you commit

Frequently asked

Questions families ask.

Is your ABA therapy BCBA-supervised?
Yes — every ABA programme is designed and reviewed by a Board Certified Behavior Analyst, not run by an unsupervised technician.
Do you offer speech and occupational therapy separately from ABA?
Yes. We assess your child first and recommend the therapy or combination that fits — not a fixed bundle.
How much does therapy cost in Dubai?
It depends on the therapy type, frequency and setting. We'll give you a clear estimate after an initial assessment.
Does UAE health insurance cover these therapies?
Many plans contribute toward ABA, speech and occupational therapy hours, though coverage varies significantly by insurer and policy tier. We'll help you check your specific plan.
Can therapy happen at home instead of a centre?
Yes — we offer home, school and centre-based sessions, whichever setting gets the best response from your child.
