Here’s Why Choose ABA Speech Therapy in Westerville, Ohio:

  • Personalized Language Pathways: We understand each child starts from a different place—whether exploring early sounds or perfecting dialogue skills. Our therapy programs are shaped by your child's particular strengths and language aspirations, ensuring sessions feel rewarding rather than overwhelming.
  • Creative Play-Based Learning: Through creative exploration, musical engagement, story-sharing, and interactive play, children develop expression skills. Our therapists weave motivating activities into sessions, helping children advance language through fun, meaningful practice.
  • Confidence Through Meaningful Communication: Communication is about more than words—it's about creating connections. We guide children in articulating needs, conveying feelings, and engaging socially with growing self-assurance. Every achievement strengthens relationships at home and throughout the community.
  • Evidence-Driven Methods: Our clinicians apply research-supported, evidence-based strategies that combine naturalistic and structured interventions. Progress is measured and honored because authentic development should be recognized and celebrated.
  • Comprehensive Language Development: Whether targeting articulation, receptive/expressive language development, AAC (augmentative and alternative communication) systems, or social‑communication skills, we nurture your child's full communicative potential.
Searching for ‘ABA speech therapy near me’? We’re ready to help your child discover their voice and form connections. Contact us today to schedule a visit and learn how we support your child’s communication path!

ABA & Occupational Therapy in Westerville

At Bierman Autism Centers in Westerville, Ohio, we provide a unified therapy model integrating ABA therapy and occupational therapy with speech therapy services.
Explore how these complementary therapies enhance your child’s development:

ABA Therapy

  • Supportive Behavioral System: Our ABA specialists establish encouraging learning spaces through systematic activities and affirmative reinforcement, cultivating communication growth, social competencies, and adaptive patterns that support speech and language development.
  • Tailored Intervention Plans: ABA programming is tailored to individual abilities and challenges, addressing behaviors that could interfere with communication while building skills that enable confident interaction and self-expression.

Occupational Therapy

Through integrated services, we empower your child to:
  • Motor Skills and Sensory Processing: Occupational therapists develop the motor coordination and sensory processing essential for communication success, including oral motor control for articulation and hand skills for AAC devices and written language.
  • Real-Life Skill Building: OT supports children in generalizing communication to everyday contexts, guiding them through routines, social interactions, and personal care with enhanced independence and confidence.
  • Express themselves clearly and confidently in all environments.
  • Create meaningful bonds through effective communication.
  • Build critical skills for success at home, in school, and across the community.
Combining speech therapy, ABA therapy, and occupational therapy offers a holistic developmental approach, advancing communication skills, self-confidence, and autonomy throughout all life areas.

What Our Clients Are Saying

I can’t thank the Bierman team enough. Our child was there for 4 years, beginning at age 20 months, so it was a tremendous journey through key developmental years. We didn’t know what ABA was at all prior to starting.
When our child entered Bierman, we had no idea if he would even speak, and now he is thriving in public school, chattering away about his favorite dinosaurs and taking on challenge after challenge. We truly do not know what we would have done without Bierman.
Bierman truly saved my life at a time when I could not manage my child’s behaviors and had no hope that our lives would get better. My child was able to build her tolerance and patience, coping, and calming strategies. The full day gave me the separation that I needed. I received weekly/bi-weekly parenting sessions, which helped me be a better parent.
This place saved my son's and my family's lives. On a less dramatic note, they have extremely high-quality care, communication, problem-solving, support, environment, staff—everything. Everything and every experience we had with Bierman was top-notch, and I am forever grateful for them. I highly recommend them.
Great facility and caring and supportive team.
My 10-year-old Autistic son has been coming here since the center first opened. This center has a lot of structure, open communication, and everything is well-documented—lots of support for the parents, including Parent training. Speech, OT is also offered at the center, which is a plus!
My son had a brief stay at Bierman in Needham because the Bedford location was full, even though it was closer. While he was there, he had some of the kindest, hardest-working, and most intuitive team working with him.
During a time when I didn't have much direction upon learning about my son's diagnosis, I have to say Bierman ABA has helped my family every step of the way.
If you are seeking the services described for your family, stop looking. This is your answer. Thank you to the Bierman family.
I wanted to wait a few months to write this review so I had a fuller experience to reflect on. My husband and I enrolled our 2-year-old son here after immigrating to the United States specifically for ABA therapy to support him. I can confidently say that Bierman ABA has helped guide us through this journey.
Great staff. First-class quality care. My son has been attending full-time for over five years now.
