Where to find ABA therapy in Chesterfield County
Chesterfield is big, and ABA offices aren't spread evenly across it. Of the 19 listings we matched to the county, nine are in two ZIP codes: 23112 in Midlothian and 23236 in North Chesterfield.
Bensley and the Route 1 corridor are the opposite. Our scan found no ABA listing within 5 miles of Bensley, an area with more than 19,000 children under 10 inside that circle. That's exactly where in-home therapy helps, because nobody has to drive across the county to a center.

FAQs: ABA therapy in Chester and Chesterfield County
Do you serve Bensley and the Route 1 area?
Yes. Bensley, Bellwood and the Route 1 corridor are inside our service area, and they have few ABA offices nearby, so in-home therapy is often the easiest option there.

Availability depends on staff near your street. We tell you an honest start date on the first call.

School-day support usually comes from the school through your child's IEP. Our sessions happen at home, and we can share goals with the school team.
