Welcome to Inclusive ABA in Mentor
For over a decade, Inclusive ABA has helped families move past what's blocking progress and unlock what Mentor children are truly capable of.
Three things that matter in Mentor ABA therapy
A genuine partnership with your family
We don't work on your child and then leave. We work with your family. We teach you the strategies. We coordinate with Mentor Public Schools, including their dedicated CARES program for students with autism. We're part of your child's team.
Therapy built around your life
You're working. You have other kids. Schedules that don't fit neatly. We bring therapy into your home, whether you're near Headlands Beach or closer to Mentor Lagoons. We work evenings. We coordinate with your reality.
Progress that's real and measurable
We track everything. You see what's improving. Your child asked for help instead of shutting down. Your child made eye contact with a teacher. Progress is data. Progress is real.
Why we're in Mentor
How Inclusive ABA came to Mentor
The founder worked in schools across the country and saw the same thing everywhere. Families struggling to get their kids help. Insurance delays. Long waitlists. Therapists who didn't coordinate with schools. Parents left to figure everything out alone.
She built Inclusive ABA to fix that. To make ABA therapy work for real families. To make sure no child has to wait months for help.
That mission brought us to Mentor because Mentor families deserve the same support.
How Inclusive ABA works
The process from start to progress
You reach out
Call (844) 244-5438. Email. Fill out a form. Tell us about your child. We answer your questions. No pressure. No sales pitch.
Insurance verification
We confirm your Ohio Medicaid or private insurance within 24 hours. You know what's covered before anything happens.
Initial assessment
A Board Certified Behavior Analyst meets with your child and your family. We understand what's happening. What your goals are. What your child needs.
Treatment plan
We build something designed for your child. Not a template. Something real and personalized based on their strengths and challenges.
Therapy starts
No waiting. Your child's therapist arrives. Real work begins. Weekly updates. Constant communication.
In-home ABA therapy in Mentor
Therapy happens in your home during real routines
We bring ABA into your home: breakfast, bedtime, getting ready for school, playtime with siblings.
Skills practiced in the kitchen transfer to dinner. Skills practiced during transitions transfer to school mornings.

Your BCBA works with your family so everyone understands the plan.
School-based ABA coordination
We work alongside your Mentor child's teachers
Mentor Public Schools operates CARES, the Cardinal Autism Resource and Education School, a specialized in-district option for students who learn differently. It's one of only a handful of programs like it in Northeast Ohio, and it says a lot about how seriously this community takes autism education.

We coordinate directly with your child's school, whether that's CARES or a Mentor elementary or middle school. Your child's teacher and therapist communicate. We attend IEP meetings. We're part of your child's school team.
Parent training for Mentor families
You become the expert on your own child
We teach you the exact strategies our therapists use. You learn what works, why it works, and how to practice it in real moments.
Parent training is coaching in your home during routines. You move from feeling helpless to feeling confident.

Progress continues all day, not just during therapy hours.
Mentor neighborhoods and local resources
Where Mentor families find space to practice
Headlands Beach State Park:
Ohio's longest public beach at nearly a mile of Lake Erie shoreline. Wide open sand gives kids room to move without feeling boxed in, and it's a great spot for practicing tolerance of new sensory experiences.
Mentor Marsh State Nature Preserve:
Over 800 acres of trails and boardwalks managed by the Cleveland Museum of Natural History. Free, quiet, and open year-round, dawn to dusk, for slower-paced nature walks.
Mentor Lagoons Nature Preserve:
A calmer waterfront setting near the marsh, good for practicing patience and observation in a low-stimulation environment.
Veterans Park:
Home to the largest inland pond in Lake County. A familiar neighborhood spot for practicing turn-taking and outdoor play.
Mentor Public Library:
A well-resourced community library with regular children's programming, offering a quiet, structured space for practicing waiting and following directions.
