Building social skills—one connection at a time.

If you’re a parent who has ever walked a hard path with your child’s health—this is for you.
I’ve been through the ups, the downs, the medication trials and tapers, the hospitalizations, the endless school calls, emails, and texts. I’ve felt the pain of isolation, the tears, the depression. I’ve experienced the failure of services that weren’t the right fit, and the heartbreak that comes when nothing seems to work. I’ve felt the physical, verbal, and emotional toll of parenting a child with extreme behavioral needs. I’ve been there, ready to give up with nowhere left to turn.

But I didn’t give up. And I’m writing this today to tell you not to either.

Brighter Strides ABA Therapy has been nothing short of life-changing for our family. Since starting services with them, and more importantly, with the right team, my son has gone from 50 aggressive behaviors in an hour to five or fewer a week. Sometimes even none. That’s not an exaggeration. It’s a testament to the power of the right support, the right medication plan, and the right people.

To Hannah and Kuri, our BCBA and RBT, you have not only changed my son’s life, you have saved my mental health as a parent. You’ve brought peace and hope back into our home. I will forever be indebted to you.

To the parents still in the thick of it: don’t stop advocating. Don’t stop learning. Don’t let anyone make you question how well you know your child. Every gut instinct I followed, every time I pushed back or pressed harder, it paid off. Keep fighting the fight. Be willing to grow and adapt alongside your child. There is always more to learn. And there is help out there that does work, Brighter Strides is proof of that.

ABA therapy, when done right, with the right people, alongside proper medication and parent training, is a game changer. It’s not perfect—but nothing is. And when you’ve been through what we have, even small wins feel like miracles.

Thank you, Brighter Strides. Thank you, Hannah and Kuri. You didn’t just help my son, you saved our family.

There were all so nice to us and explaining everything waiting to start school soon excited thank you

This is a pretty good place. Can’t wait to start services for my son!

Un lugar muy seguro, sobre todo los trabajadores son muy amables yo en lo personal estoy en encantada con el gran avance qué tiene mi hijo

I would like to take a moment to express my heartfelt appreciation for my son’s incredible therapy team, Mrs. Alyssa and Mrs. Z. Over the past year with Brighter Strides ABA, the progress my son has made in his growth and development has been truly reassuring for our family's future.

Mrs. Alyssa, our dedicated coordinator, has been an exceptional advocate for my son, ensuring that his needs are met on various different occasions when I was unknowledgeable on how to express them. Mrs. Z, through her one-on-one sessions, has brought creativity, enthusiasm, and unwavering dedication to his development, making a meaningful impact that has not gone unnoticed.

Thank you both for not only supporting my son but also guiding and uplifting our entire family as we navigate this journey. Your hard work and commitment mean the world to us!

Very professional. My kids love the center and staff is friendly.

Bright Strides provides great services by understanding the specific needs of our kids, not only with good strategies but also with clear and complete goals. The administrative service is excellent, always willing to help and find solutions.

All pros no cons great people and organization

My son Danny has been with Bright Strides for over three years, and his progress in following instructions, speech, and social skills has been amazing. The Bright Strides team has worked tirelessly to ensure that Daniel advances in every area he needs. They have designed sessions with clear and achievable goals tailored to him. All of Danny's accomplishments are a direct result of the team's dedication and the ongoing support we've received as parents. The administrative team has also been incredibly responsive, addressing any questions or concerns we've had in the shortest time possible. I have nothing but gratitude and positive feedback for the exceptional service we've received.

A fantastic ABA center! The staff genuinely cares, and their methods are both effective and compassionate.

Really helped my son. Grateful for the work they’ve done especially his RBT!

Brighter Strides has been fantastic for my son. Our RBT and her supervisor have been engaging and I feel like he is making progress everyday with is in home therapy. Alex and Bri are the best!!

They are very professional they take their time to understand their clients needs, and also the parents needs and concerns understanding. I’ve seen improvement with my kiddo.

My son attends Brighter Strides for ABA therapy. We have just started but so far we have really enjoyed all the staff and my Son absolutely loves the facility.

My son is receiving services in Fayetteville, NC. No wait list. I was amazed how quickly services started. The intake process to starting services took about 3 weeks. Other ABA companies were needing evals within 3 years where Brighter Strides didn't require. My son is enrolled at a Christian private academy where he receives ABA. His behaviors changed immediately. His team works not only with my son, but with myself and staff to ensure he's going to succeed and thrive. I am impressed with his team. Diana (RBT), Som (lead RBT), and Kiera (BCBA) are fantastic! These ladies are greatly appreciated by faculty at the school also.

Grateful to have stumble across this company. My son receives in-home therapy just over a year now. They are professional and very accommodating to my son’s needs. I can’t thank enough Chelsea Carter and Carla Goodman for all they do. These two ladies give it their all. I’m so very proud of my son's progress. Office people are friendly and fast. Brighter strides is the way to go!
