A holistic alternative that integrates education, speech, occupational and behavioral therapies:
a new way to ABA.

Our Approach

Adaptive Path Learning Collective is a preschool-based program for children with autism that provides ABA, speech therapy, and occupational therapy in an environment designed to help your child shine. We believe in whole-body and whole-child therapy. We employ a variety of professionals who are experts across all areas of childhood development to deliver the most comprehensive care available. Adaptive Path Learning Collective provides ABA therapy, speech therapy, occupational therapy, and autism preschool services for children in Cedar Park, Leander, Liberty Hill, Georgetown, Round Rock, and surrounding Central Texas communities.

At APLC we believe that all behavior is an indication. Behavior is defined as a reaction to stimulation. We know that stimulation can be social, environmental, or physiological. We believe that in order to be our best, we must feel our best. This includes balancing all body systems and supporting growth across all developmental domains. APLC is a new way to ABA.

Our Mission

We believe that all children deserve access to education, all of the time. This is why we have combined traditional preschool curricula with evidence-based therapies. We use a whole body, whole child approach for children with autism to prepare them for successful and meaningful participation in their communities.

Each student’s journey will be unique, and APLC will tailor a program fit to their specific needs. We strive to create a setting that supports every child and family as they navigate their combined educational and therapeutic paths.

Our plan is not to replace traditional education, but to be the bridge that supports children who may learn differently on their individual path to success. We aim to provide education and therapy in tandem, with the goal of graduating preschoolers who are ready to enter mainstream educational institutions and thrive in their communities.

Meet the Founders

Jenna and Haley first met many years ago as graduate students at Texas Tech University (Wreck ‘Em!). Though they began their careers in different states and settings, they share a passion for creating the highest achievable quality of care and a desire to do good in their community. As women (and moms!) in business they believe they have cultivated a space where caregivers can confidently send their children, knowing they will be supported in every possible way.

  • Co-Founder

    Haley was born in Boston and practiced in Massachusetts and California before settling down in the great state of Texas. She has spent the majority of her career working in early intervention and speech or behavior clinics supporting the communication needs of children with autism. Haley firmly believes in the presumption of competence, access to learning, and that every child deserves to be heard — in whatever way works best for them. Additional trainings include: SOS Approach to Feeding (sequential-oral-sensory), Beckman Oral Motor I and II.
