At ABYay!, we provide autism-focused ABA therapy for children and families across Pennsylvania. Our team uses the science of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) to help children build communication, social, and daily living skills that matter in real life.
Every program is tailored to your child. We look at their strengths, challenges, and daily routines, then design goals that fit your family. Our therapists make learning positive and engaging, so children feel supported while they work hard.
As a trusted ABA therapy company serving York, Harrisburg, West Shore, Hershey, Lancaster, Springfield, and the surrounding communities, we combine clinical expertise with a warm, family-centered approach.
Our mission at ABYay! is to provide life-changing Applied Behavior Analysis therapy that empowers our clients to achieve their goals and lead fulfilling lives.

Finally, we are committed to providing therapy that is meaningful and has a lasting impact. We believe that every client has the potential for growth and change, and we work tirelessly to help our clients achieve their goals and reach their full potential.
At ABYay!, we are dedicated to making a positive impact in the lives of our clients and their families, and we are honored to be a part of their journey towards a happier and more fulfilling life.
In Pennsylvania, many ABA providers operate as Medical Assistance (MA) agencies. This ties back to the state’s specific rules for Intensive Behavioral Health Services (IBHS), which require that ABA therapy be delivered through licensed agencies rather than individual practitioners. These agencies must follow IBHS standards for staffing, training, and supervision, but those rules only set the baseline.
Working as MA agencies also helps make services reimbursable and accessible for children on Medical Assistance, especially when families lack private insurance or their costs go beyond what private plans will cover.
ABYay! chooses to go well beyond those minimums. Our goal is to provide a higher level of care for families in South Central PA, not just meet the baseline.
| Area of Care | Typical ABA Agency in PA | ABYay! |
|---|---|---|
| Staff Qualifications | Technicians are not required to be RBTs; many have minimal ABA background. Supervisors only need a master’s degree and 90 hours of ABA training. (No ABA coursework required.) | All ABYay! therapists are trained Registered Behavior Technicians (RBTs) under the direct oversight of BCBAs who have advanced ABA training. |
| Case Oversight | Often supervised by staff with general counseling degrees; a single BCBA may oversee many programs indirectly. | Your child’s program is directly overseen by highly qualified BCBAs, two-thirds of whom would qualify to run entire programs on their own. |
| Program Quality | Meets regulatory minimums; quality varies agency to agency. | ABYay! exceeds all IBHS requirements, uses evidence-based ABA, and provides consistent, high-fidelity intervention. |
| Consistency of Services | Assessments may occur even when staffing isn’t available; parents often wait for months after assessment. | ABYay! does not begin an assessment unless we know we can staff your child’s program. No long waits. No broken promises. |
| Where Services Happen | Depends on staffing and MA rules; may be limited. | Home, school, and community-based services available depending on the child’s needs. |
| Who You Talk To | Larger agencies may be hard to reach; families often get routed to call centers or admin staff. | When you call ABYay!, you reach a real team member who knows your family by name. |
For parents, this means you are not just choosing any MA agency. You are choosing a team that sets a higher bar for training, oversight, and follow-through. Come see for yourself.
Unfortunately, we do not accept Medicaid at this time.
As an ABA therapy company, we care about both the science and the experience of care. Our team uses data to guide decisions, but we never forget there is a real child and family behind every graph.
We’re proud of the impact we make, with 90% of parents saying they’re very or extremely satisfied with our services, and 100% rate our team’s commitment to their child’s progress as above average or excellent. We work hard to earn that trust with every family we serve.
