Therapists in Pensacola, FL

Try http://www.teampbs.com/ They were at our walk and they take medicaid and medwaiver. I believe they do in home therapy.

Also so I believe Walrus takes medicaid too.https://www.facebook.com/WalrusServices

And if you want to travel to Pensacola http://www.btectherapy.com/ takes medicaid also the Sacred Heart Autism Center but both have waiting lists from what I have heard.

Joanie ABA therapy with Walrus Services is AWESOME as I have already shared with you honey...I have a different girl at which I know you can see that...call Guy he is AWEOME and very understanding

Lakeview does it on a sliding scale. They are Baptist Hospital affiliated.

Cyndi Skoros is the best!

Lakeview. I had a family member who went there. Glad to hear you're safe. Welcome to P-cola and best of luck.

So I used [Psychology today](https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/therapists) where I found mine (Kevin Moser) and I’m quite happy with him. He is also very reasonable with pricing. Good luck in finding someone. It’s important to find someone you feel comfortable with. As a (currently) free option you can also download the Mine’d app which has lots of topics they cover on a weekly basis.

Escambia County community health clinic is an option. I haven't experienced their counseling yet (but I plan to). I do have experience with them for physical health purposes. My visit was $20 based on income. Included blood work, EEG, anxiety prescription, ect.

I see [Mickettric Mann](https://www.mickettricmann.com). I'm not sure what rates she charges, but she mentioned in passing that discounts rates when she can for those in need. Even if she can't discount in this particular situation, I'm sure she'd be able to put you in contact with other resources.

mushrooms are cheap and work 100%

We love Spectrum House. We use it for both of our kids. My youngest is 3 1/2, nonverbal. We are only doing 6 hrs a week right now and they have been great at working with our crazy and changing schedule. We did more hours during the summer. They have multiple locations.

We have some of the area centers listed on our resources page and there is a link on that page to the Behavior Analyst Certification Board as well. http://autismpensacola.org/resources.html

Behavior Changes, LLC has an amazing and highly qualified staff of BCBAs and Behavior Technicians who provide services in the natural environment. Call Teresa at 850-270-0640 for additional information.

We've used 2 other companies in town before we found Behavior Changes. They are AMAZING. When we started, she pretty much for all intents & purposes non-verbal (extreme selective mutism) but now she's a sassy chatterbox. We only do like 9 hours a week (and sometimes less) but it's about quality not quantity!

Sara Barrett BTEC is the only company in the region that has a service delivery model that only uses Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs) - not behavior technicians, not tutors, not BCaBAs. BTEC has highly qualified therapists who are skilled in the appropriate implementation of applied behavior analysis and can offer a truly individualised implementation based on your child's needs . Hope this helps. Please feel free to private message me.

Please call our principal, Charles Thomas,@(850) 458-7735. He can answer your questions and set up a tour if you'd like. We have OT, Speech, and PT (if needed) during the school day. We offer speech and ot services after school, also. Our ese hours are 8:30-12:35, which is ideal for our families that do aba and other outpatient therapies elsewhere. It is not too late in the day to find an ideal time slot. We have a school bus, also, if that is needed for your child. Being on the west side, it should not be far from you at all, we are located on 4901 West Fairfield Drive.

Wow Mary Moore..I'm sorry that happened to u...but we see Natalie a d she is awsome. .

Sherri Bell at Psychiatric Associates on Palafox, I really liked her for my son- but he wound up relating better to a male so I switched him to Dr.Dillon at the same practice.

Better Brain Services. The psychologist there is a School Psychologist and has years of experience with children. www.BetterBrainServices.com

Eugenia Cribb at Stone Ridge Counseling Center

Dr Yarbrough does miracles

Wendy DePury at Creekside

If you are interested in Christian based counseling, call Pensacola Baptist Association. They have sliding scale fees.

Lakeview cannot do that type of testing due to Autism being neuro developmental in nature. I always refer clients to call the Autism Pensacola office because they are such a great resource and can point you in the right direction for resources in the area:) I am also sorry your little one had such a bad experience at Lakeview. That's really unfortunate. I would highly suggest looking for someone who has a background in ABA therapy instead of a generalist if your little person has Autism (I am a licensed clinical worker and have seen some colleagues that were ABA therapists do amazing work to help kids on the spectrum ). Good luck!

We used Dr. Kizilbash

I totally recommend Dr. Kizilbash too. My 8 year old son recently tested with him. My son liked him so much that he cried when I told him we had our last appointment for a while...He said he was going to miss him and he has never responded about someone like that before.

Sacred Heart Pediatric Out patient Rehab can evaluate children using the ADOS 2. Just need a referral from Pediatrician.

Dr. Kizilbash tested both of my older children and he was wonderful.

At Sacred Heart 5153 N 9 th Ave, #304 Pensacola, FL (850) 484-7800

I took both my boys to Dr. Kizilbash too, we were referred to him. He gave us a very detailed report.

I took my son to Dr. Kizilbash and really liked him. I also have my son attending BTEC for ABA therapy. They have only BCBA's working as therapists.

Here is a list of some of our practitioner in USA, please see the link: http://www.lotuspalm.com/alumni/

Behavior Matters / Emily Boatner. Two thumbs up!
