About The Company

Lighthouse Autism Center provides compassionate, center-based ABA therapy services for children with autism in Indiana, Michigan, Illinois, Iowa, and Nebraska. We offer the highest quality therapy in a beautiful, play-based environment. Our innovative ABA therapy model, Lighthouse Fusion®, helps children make greater progress, faster. Children are immersed in imaginary spaces where they can naturally explore their interests, engage in sensory experiences, and practice language. Each child’s progress can be seen in smiles and laughter because we know children learn best when they’re having fun. Our approach to autism treatment brings together ABA therapy and speech therapy into one comprehensive program called Lighthouse Fusion®. Designed by a team of dually certified BCBA/SLPs, some of only a handful in the world, Lighthouse Fusion ™ is a one-of-a-kind approach to ABA therapy. Each child has a team of experts working to develop goals, deliver therapy, and unlock their potential.
