About Astra ABA

Why Astra ABA exists

Our story

Astra ABA was born where professional experience and personal story meet.

I began my career in 2014 in behavioral health, working with teenagers facing serious mental health and addiction challenges. I saw firsthand what consistent, compassionate care could do – helping young people move from their most difficult moments toward stability and independence. Years later, I found myself drawn back to behavioral health, this time to support children at a stage where the right intervention can shape the rest of their lives.

That mission became deeply personal through my oldest son. From the time he was very young, we were told he was bright, loving, and full of potential – but also that he was struggling and should be evaluated for autism. Like many parents, we resisted at first. Eventually we had him evaluated, and he began receiving services. What followed was an incredible change – not only for him, but for our entire family.

When I saw what the right support could do for my own child, I knew this was the work I wanted to dedicate myself to.

Astra ABA was founded so other families could experience that same hope and possibility. We focus on communities where access is limited – rural areas, Spanish-speaking families, children who might otherwise wait too long for care. Our mission is not simply to provide services, but to provide true care: individualized, compassionate, and built around each child.

What we stand for

Care built around each child.

Not a program a child is fit into – a plan built around who they are.

Individualized

Every plan is designed around one child – their strengths, their goals, their pace.

Compassionate

Warm, neuro-affirming, play-based. We meet children with patience, never pressure.

Access for all

We reach rural families and Spanish-speaking families who too often wait too long for care.

In your home

Skills grow where they're used – in the child's own home, routines, and family life.
