At Inner Circle Autism Network, play isn’t just part of the ABA therapy experience — it is the therapy. Our clinics are intentionally designed to provide an environment where children learn naturally through hands-on activities, movement, and imagination, and our ABA providers follow children’s lead through play.
“We use the child’s own motivation through play and interactions to embed teaching opportunities,” said Emilea Palmer, BCBA, Inner Circle Autism Network treatment director (Omaha). “It’s fun — the kids love to be here.”
Play-based ABA therapy takes a scientific, evidence-based approach that feels engaging and natural. From toy cars and art projects to music and imaginative play, every interaction is thoughtfully designed to build meaningful skills — like communication, sharing, and flexibility — in ways children actually enjoy.
“It might not look like intensive therapy, but that’s intentional,” said Crystal Lissuzzo, BCBA, Inner Circle Autism Network senior treatment director (Oklahoma City). “Kids learn best through play.”
At Inner Circle, every moment of play has a purpose. Our Board-Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs) and Registered Behavior Technicians (RBTs) shape environments that inspire learning and progress — because ABA should be something every child looks forward to.
From themed rooms and natural learning spaces to everyday play that builds lifelong skills, Inner Circle is redefining what ABA can look like — joyful, purposeful, and rooted in science.
