ABA Therapy for Families in Los Altos
Center-based ABA at our San Jose center, about 22 minutes from Los Altos without traffic.
Center-based · BCBA-led · Oakland & San Jose
Los Altos is one of the longer trips to our San Jose center: about 22 minutes without traffic to 125 Ciro Ave, Suite 240, roughly 13.4 miles. We say that plainly because the trip is part of the decision, and our Oakland center is much farther, about 57 minutes.
Therapy is center-based only. A Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) leads each plan, and we do not provide in-home or telehealth ABA. If a longer drive would be a deal-breaker for your family, a free consultation is the way to find out what a typical week looks like before you decide.
The drive from Los Altos
From Los Altos, routes run through Mountain View or Sunnyvale and then into San Jose: El Camino Real and Foothill Expressway on the surface, or Interstate 280 and Highway 85 on the freeway. The 22-minute figure is the free-flow estimate; commute traffic on 280 and 85 can add time.
Mountain View is about 19 minutes from the center, and Sunnyvale about 16.
Los Altos: schools, funding and coverage
Los Altos children attend schools in the Los Altos School District for kindergarten through eighth grade, and the Mountain View-Los Altos Union High School District for high school. Check which applies to your address. If your child has an IEP, bring it to the consultation.
Los Altos is in Santa Clara County. Santa Clara County families are served by San Andreas Regional Center. Rori Care does not accept Regional Center funding yet, so if your child is a Regional Center client, ask us what we can do alongside your plan before you decide.
Aetna is one of the plans we work with. Whether an Aetna plan is fully insured or self-funded by an employer changes which autism rules apply, and our Aetna page explains how we find out before the assessment.
Deciding whether the distance works
Twenty-two minutes each way is a real commitment when sessions run several times a week. The practical test is simple: drive it once on a weekday at the hour your child would attend, with the school and work stops you would really make, and see whether you can imagine doing it every week.
For comparison, from the San Jose center Santa Clara is about 6 minutes, Cupertino 12, Sunnyvale 16, Mountain View 19 and Palo Alto about 26. Los Altos families have a choice of where to look; we would rather you pick the program that fits your life than the one that is nearest.
